2008 Molly Dooker Cabernet Maitre D

90pts(WA)The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon The Maitre D’ was raised in 50% new French and American oak for 11 months. Opaque purple-colored 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. This pleasure bent effort can be enjoyed over the next 6-8 years.  Jay Miller Wine Advocate # 186 Dec 2009

A Cabernet-lover’s dream with layers of dark fruit, dark chocolate and spice with silky tannins. Superb depth and concentration, as well as a super long finish puts this wine into overdrive!  Not yet Rated prior vintages have received 92 and 91 pts from Robert Parker

Mollydooker is the label of the renowned winemaking team of Sparky and Sarah Marquis. This is their third vintage, one seriously affected by the drought conditions in Barossa and McLaren Vale. Their overall production was down by 50% in 2007. Mollydooker is divided into four tiers beginning with the Lefty Series, line-priced at $25. Next up the ladder is the Party Series priced at $55, followed by two wines comprising the Love Series priced at $80. At the top of the pyramid is one wine, The Velvet Glove, priced at $185.
