We were recently in Chicago visiting family and, of course, we had to check out the local wine store. It's always fun shopping for wines and bourbons in a "new" city. You never know what you may find. Since it can be tough to find Mollydooker close to us (it is hit-and-miss) we decided to grab this bottle. We have long been Mollydooker fans but had yet to write about any of the 2019 vintages.
The 2019 Mollydooker Two Left Feet is a fun way to step outside of MD's famous 100% Shiraz offerings. This is a blend of Shiraz (69%), Merlot (16% and Cabernet Sauvignon (15%). Dark magenta in the glass with wonderful, long legs, the wine permeates the air beautifully with fresh raspberry, cherry and spices. At 16% ABV this wine isn't for the faint of heart. But it isn't fumy or bear any unpleasant hints of menthol that you can get from other high octane wines. In the mouth is a effortless and polished feel of a wine that boasts hearty red fruits, aged peppered steak, vanilla and grilling spices. If you like blended wines that are very flavorful and cost-friendly, you can't go wrong with Two Left Feet!
