Mollydooker Blue Eyed Boy Shiraz is an embodiment of premium Australian winemaking. It's characterised by a rich, expressive personality, introducing itself with an intense splash of vibrant blackberry compote and blueberry silkiness. Caramelised notes envelope your palate, accompanied by a harmonious duet of dark chocolate cherries and whispers of vanilla. Underlying all this is an earthy spiciness - a peppered nod to its Shiraz heritage. This full-bodied red wine, laden with velvety tannins, commands a long, sensuous finish. Blue Eyed Boy's robust flavours and robust eccentricity, makes it a celebration, perfect to accompany a hearty roast or a grandiose, twilight charcuterie board.

Tasting Notes

Black crimson in colour, this wine leaps from the glass with powerful aromatics of blueberries, fresh plum, licorice and nuances of chocolate biscuit. The seamless texture is laced with fresh berry fruit, coffee, vanilla cream and warm spice, giving us a full-bodied Shiraz with an endless depth of flavour and great length.
