Mollydooker - Cabernet Sauvignon South Australia The Maitre D 2021 is produced in California with fruit sourced from vineyards selected for balance and varietal clarity. Hand harvesting and small‑lot vinification allow careful control of fermentations, with an emphasis on clean extraction and preservation of fruit integrity.

Fermentation is conducted in stainless steel or small open‑top tanks, depending on the varietal, with pump‑overs or punch‑downs managed to achieve structure without harshness. Aging takes place in a mix of French and American oak barrels, where time in wood refines texture and brings added complexity without masking the grape’s natural profile.

Each vintage reflects a commitment to sustainable vineyard practices and precise cellar work, yielding a wine that stands as a faithful expression of both varietal and region.

Mollydooker

Mollydooker is a celebrated Australian wine brand from the McLaren Vale region. The brand's name, a colloquial Australian term for a left-handed person, is a tribute to its co-founder and winemaker, Sparky Marquis, who is left-handed. The brand's identity is defined by a fun, creative, and unconventional approach to winemaking and marketing.

The brand's philosophy is rooted in a unique and meticulous system called "fruit weight," a process that measures the flavor and intensity of the grapes to ensure a consistent level of quality. The wines are known for their bold, rich, and full-bodied style, with a focus on powerful fruit and a smooth texture. Mollydooker is particularly famous for its expressions of Shiraz, which are often described as having concentrated notes of blackberry, plum, and chocolate.

Mollydooker is also known for its whimsical wine names and labels, such as "The Boxer" and "The Blue Eyed Boy," which contribute to the brand's playful and approachable character. It is a symbol of a passionate, hands-on approach to winemaking that results in truly memorable and high-quality wines.
