Molly Dooker The Boxer Shiraz 2005 - Mclaren Vale/Padthaway/Langhorne Creek, Australia

Deep maroon with a black/purple center. Aromas lead with dried cocoa, pencil shavings and stewed fruit. The palate is incredibly full and thick with a syrupy texture. Flavours of dried prune, dark cherry and lashings of vanillin oak flow. I don't think there is much more to gain by further cellaring this wine. The time is now. A supercharged, super rich Shiraz from the deep South. A$35/bottle

93 points
