Bourgogne Côte d'Or Rouge, L'Ouvrée, Benjamin Leroux (Magnum) 2023 vs Mollydooker The Boxer Shiraz 2023

Mollydooker The Boxer Shiraz 2023

Named because the very first taster declared it “a knockout,” The Boxer Shiraz is rich, deep, and layered. Elegant yet powerful, it shows lifted aromas of fresh plum, mocha, and liquorice. The palate is soft and plummy, with well-measured tannins and subtle toasted oak integrating seamlessly with the fruit, creating a wine of great depth and complexity.

Winemaking Fermented and matured in 100% American oak barrels (45% new, 25% one-year-old, 30% two-year-old) with malolactic fermentation, preserving structure while enhancing richness. Tasting Notes Plum, mocha, liquorice, toasted oak, elegant tannins, layered, rich. Grape Variety Shiraz (Syrah) Food Pairing Ideal with grilled or roasted red meats, lamb, or hearty stews.
