The Boxer Shiraz 2023

Deep, dark Ruby red color with a fruit forward nose, lots of ripe berries with oaky notes. Jammy big and bold blackberry flavors with some spice, cacao, cedar and leather notes with nice mouthfeel. Big fine tannins with berry fruit carried over to the finish with oak and sweet spice. — 4 months ago

Surprisingly pleasant and fun. Had it twice and drank it down both times. Cooled it a bit first. — 4 years ago

Giaconda

Estate Vineyard Chardonnay

Winner of the night from the Legend Imports wine dinner at Peasant featuring a variety of beautiful wines from Australia that are not mollydooker penfolds or yellowtail.

This wine was described as Australian Montrachet and boy was that right. Anyone tasting blind would’ve picked burgundy.

Delicious.

Aubert

Larry Hyde & Sons Chardonnay 2017

Infanticide. Tasty, tasty infanticide. Even though the acidity here was huge, and this wine was tightly coiled, you can tell a sign of excellent things to come. The nose is dried herb, Asian pear, mango. Entry is acidic, salinity, herbal, limestone. Fruit showed in the middle after the tongue stopped burning. Pear, kiwi, guava. Finishes rather restricted. Good balance. Structure is there. This needs about 2 years in bottle but I recorked the second half to slow ox.... Day 2: ... :Shock: now I think I'm gonna do the Mollydooker shake and slow ox to all of these younger Aubert. What a difference. Nose is much more tropical. Dense. Notes were pretty much the same, but very present. Acidity in check. Wonderful finish. Hint of oak in the finish. Glad I saved 2/3 of the wine for day 2! Now I see why they recommend double decanting! And I would add a 24 hour slow ox to that! — 7 years ago

@Ryan Vento : I’ve never decanted champagne but I’m not against it. I know people who have with positive results. I’ve also heard from people in town who did a tasting with Olivier that he got upset when people asked if he would call Krug an “oxidative” style champagne. Certainly seems to me that it is 🤷🏼‍♂️. Different strokes for different folks.

I would absolutely decant if it needed it. I have no problem with that at all. Depends on the Champagne. Cheers!

I always thought that decanting 'champagne' was reserved only for athletes who were spraying it all over themselves in the locker room after a big win? I think if I decanted a Champagne, I would really have to know the ins-and-outs of that particular Champagne before deciding to do so.

Sleight Of Hand Cellars

Levitation Syrah 2012

Holy extraction grandma. Imagine a bottle of Caymus and a bottle of MollyDooker (any MD, really) met at a party and hit it off.. the Caymus, being outgoing and forgetting it's manners, while slightly inebriated, started dancing a bit too close to the Molly Dooker. She, being equally overt, slightly even more intoxicated, and not being one to say no to a good time, gladly indulged and pulled him closer as the music roared louder. They made their way through the crowd, bumping and grinding, and stumbled out the door to Caymus' sup'd up '69 Mustang Mach 1. Molly, being a thrill seeker with a new found love for Rutherford but a bigger love for adventure, shouted at Caymus as he gripped the wheel - "let's leave this state in our dust!" The two sped across the countryside, hand in hand, and finally ran out of gas as they crossed the state line into Washington. It was there they made love. A lovechild was born. It's name - Levitation. Levi for short.

For those confused - it drinks like a lovechild of Caymus and Molly Dooker coming from Washington. Not bad juice.

Nuts & Bolts Syrah 2014

High powered juice but silky smooth and highly aromatic. Cherries, blueberries and spice. Rich and dark in the glass, the high alcohol is nicely balanced and this reminds me of Velvet Glove from Mollydooker, but you get three for the price of one with this Paso Robles Syrah. — 8 years ago

After having this, I went to check what I paid. $17!!! Crazy! I thought this was at least $30+. Thank you Garagiste!

Surprisingly hot for 11 years old. Still youthful and full tilt. Reminded me of mollydooker but with an American twist. Impressive.

So this one's not for the faint of heart. Extremely ripe style, heavy dark berries with a green note in there. Viscous and granular on the palate. Reminds me of Mollydooker. Unsubtle, but good stuff. — a year ago

Two Hands

Bella's Garden Barossa Valley Shiraz 2005

Catching up on old notes. Drank this magnum with extended family on Christmas Eve. A rich ripe full bodied style showing plum and chocolate. Two Hands seems like one of those labels like Mollydooker which are better known in the USA than in Australia. — 4 years ago

Spoto Wines

Oakville Cuvée Christiane Red Blend 2016

For a 2016 Spoto, this one did well. Of course, opening and Mollydooker shaking this one 7 hours beforehand likely did this one extremely well. Youthful black cherry, blackberry and dried herb. Middle and finish still has oak influence which is quite substantial. Really nice wine which will age nicely. — 7 years ago

Thanks to YouTube for the Mollydooker shake instructions. Never heard of this before. Is Spoto a screwcap?

Marquis Philips

Integrity Shiraz 2001

It’s getting darker earlier and that means winter is coming and this is a winter wine if ever there was one. I knew this would be big but it’s bigger than that! Extremely dark in the glass with a slight cloudiness brought on by the age. There was plenty of sediment in the bottle so had to run through filter paper. Extremely powerful nose with dark fruits, tar, winter spices and menthol. Palate is very smooth and the alcohol which is high has integrated well which allows for a rich rather than hot finish. Loads of fruit on the taste with a blend of diesel, pepper and espresso. This wine was created by the Mollydooker gang in an earlier venture and it shows. Probably not for everybody but in its class this is really good and very enjoyable. Perfect time to drink this is when you need help getting over the hump after Thanksgiving or Christmas lunch before the ham and cheese come out in the evening. — 8 years ago
