Mollydooker Red Wine: The Boxer Shiraz, Two Left Feet, Sparkling Shiraz

A Touch of Mollydooker Red Wine Magic from the McLaren Vale Wine Region, South Australia

The sweet aromas that dance on the air upon opening a bottle of sparkling Shiraz or red wine from Mollydooker never gets old. Mollydooker produces superb quality red wine – with an iconically Aussie twist. The vineyard oozes sass, humour and good vibes. While their wines may be playfully named (The Boxer, Two Left Feet, Miss Molly), they are crafted with experience and finesse.

Mollydooker Red Wine – “Don’t Walk, Run”

Consistently Receives 95 – 99 Points & Regularly Listed as Best in the World for Reds and Whites!

As world-renowned wine expert, Robert Parker said in 1999 (and reiterated again in 2006), don’t walk to pick up your Mollydooker bottles – run(*2). They have a tendency to sell out in only days after release.

Listing every single accolade Mollydooker has been awarded would make for quite a lengthy blog post. So, to give you an idea of the prestige and quality that is associated with Mollydooker, their very first ‘The Boxer’ vintage was reviewed by Parker as being #1 valued red wine globally(*2). What a review to kick off with! The Mollydooker vineyard also took second and fourth place in that same list. From there, they have five different wines scored at a phenomenal 99 points, and much more.

It’s a Kind of Magic in McLaren Vale

There is certainly a touch of magic and brilliance in these wines. They are also priced incredibly well (thus the awards for top value).

You can pick up Mollydooker wines from as low as $27 online and in-store.

Does Mollydooker Ring a Bell?

If Mollydooker rang a bell for you, it may be because we have mentioned the vineyard in a previous blog, Best Australian Sparkling Shiraz: Bleasdale, Mollydooker, Majella, Spinifex.

In that blog post, we discussed Australia’s best bottles of sparkling Shiraz, and of course, Mollydooker was one of our top choices.
