After what many winemakers are referring to as an excellent growing season in Australia, the Mollydooker winery shared their entire 2009 portfolio of Australian wines with wine blogger Brian Pasch.
Pasch visited the Mollydooker winery in April 2010 for the exclusive opportunity to be the first to taste and review the 2009 collection, including the 2009 Mollydooker Boxer Shiraz.
His reviews are published on Corkd.com, the most comprehensive and exciting source for wine news.
Part of what makes Mollydooker Wines so unique is that their portfolio can vary based on the quality of fruit harvested. The vineyard fruit is scored based on its Marquis Fruit Weight™ score. For example, the Boxer is only produced from vineyards that have a 65% Fruit Weight score.
The 2009 Boxer Shiraz by Mollydooker is a powerful and complex Shiraz with sweet fruit and lovely structural tannin. The Boxer combines the regional flavors of grapes from McLaren Vale, Langhorne Creek and Padthaway to offer incredible power and purity.
According to Pasch, “The 2009 The Boxer is an explosive, mouth filling Shiraz experience with integrated tannins and an amazingly long finish. There are no hard edges on this powerful Shiraz.” Pasch also suggests that the 2009 Boxer is possibly the best Boxer every produced by Mollydooker Wines.
