WHAT IS THE MARQUISE?
(n.) A woman who holds a high social rank in her own right.
For our first ever small batch wine, it only made sense to honour Robert Parker and the profound impact he had on the early years of Mollydooker. Inspired by Parkers love of Syrah from the Rhône Valley, we fermented and aged four barrels of our ultra premium Shiraz grapes in French oak for 11 months, creating a style we have never released before.
The result. A remarkable wine that will delight you with its subtle nuances and understated complexity.
TASTING NOTES
The Marquise 2024 Shiraz opens with a vibrant bouquet of dark blackberry and plum, lifted by hints of vanilla cream and butterscotch. The palate is rich yet beautifully balanced, revealing layers of chocolate, coffee and gentle spice intertwined with delicate floral undertones. Supple French oak tannins provide structure, leading to a smooth, lingering finish – a wine of elegance and refined complexity.
