new blowout wine
2008 Mollydooker "The Maitre D" Cabernet Sauvignon
(Mollydooker means "A left-handed person" in Australia)
"Opaque purple-color with legs that ooze down the glass, it displays a reticent bouquet that with coaxing reveals wood smoke, violets, black currant and blackberry. This is followed by a full-bodied wine with a glossy texture, succulent fruit, and excellent concentration..." Jay Miller, The Wine Advocate
90 points
$19.99 (reg. $24.99)
And 10 % Discount On A Case
For 12 years, Sarah & Sparky Marquis (pronounced Mar-kwis) have been "WOW"ing wine fans around the world with their award winning Australian wines made for such brands as Fox Creek, Henry's Drive, Parsons Flat, Shirvington, Marquis Philips, Integrity, and now Mollydooker. This dynamic duo has been awarded the title of Australian Winemakers of the Year; is the only husband and wife winemaking team to receive McLaren Vale's prestigious Bushing Award three times; and is responsible for crafting four of only 24 Australian wines to receive 99 points from Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate in the last 10 years. The wine is named after Sparky, who earned money to put himself through winemaking college as a left-handed Maitre D'.
This will be here tomorrow (7/21) and we will have a bottle open in the afternoon for you to try
