Noted wine writer, Brian Pasch, will travel to Australia at the end of March to be the first to taste the 2009 vintage from Mollydooker Wines.  The 2009 wines have just been bottled and promise to capture Mollydooker’s legendary and award winning experience.

 

In a fun twist for Australian wine lovers, Pasch will be videotaping his entire two week journey of tastings and discoveries at the Mollydooker Winery.  All of his experiences, notes and findings will be updated live on the new website, http://www.weloveshiraz.com .  Australian wine lovers are encouraged to follow along with Pasch’s journey and be the first to read his inside writings on the upcoming vintage.

 

Mollydooker Wines are responsible for creating some of the world’s highest ranking wines, including the Carnival of Love Shiraz from McLaren Vale South Australia which was chosen as one of the Top 10 wines in the world in the Wine Spectator Top 100 wines annual review.   Their 2005 Lefty reds were rated the 1st, 2nd and 4th best value wines in the world under $20 by Wine Advocate, and their Love Wines received 99 and 96 point scores.  

 

Early reports already suggest that the 2009 vintage is outstanding, and Mollydooker co-owner, Sparky Marquis, says the 2009 wines are among some of the best wines they have ever bottled. 

 

Australian wine lovers should join http://www.weloveshiraz.com  to experience the visit to Mollydooker’s gorgeous winery and follow Brian Pasch’s trip.
