Wine Review: This clear and dark ruby colored Shiraz from Mollydooker opens with a fragrant blackberry and black licorice bouquet with hints of coconut, molasses, and orange peel. On the palate, this wine is full bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is nicely balanced, round, seamless and mouthwatering. The flavor profile is an extracted blackberry and black licorice blend with notes of dark chocolate, cola, and blueberry. I also detected hints of toasted coconut and molasses. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity, and moderate tannins linger and last for quite some time. I would pair this Shiraz with a pan-seared duck breast with a blackberry sauce and/or with dark chocolate. Enjoy – Ken
Winemaker Notes: Black crimson in color, this wine leaps from the glass with powerful aromatics of blueberries, fresh plum, licorice and nuances of chocolate biscuit. The seamless texture is laced with fresh berry fruit, coffee, vanilla cream, and warm spice, giving us a full-bodied Shiraz with an endless depth of flavor and great length.
