  The wine's name and the label imply for a gimmick. But this is a very nice and interesting wine. Citrus, flowers and minerals on the nose. Sharp, with excellent acidity. Off-dry.

  On the nose-ripe fruits, spices, chocolate, spices. Deep and flatterer. Full bodied, almost chewy. Predominant and stinging acidity. Soft tannins. Very good.

• 2010 Mollydooker Shiraz The Boxer 91 Points

  Australia, South Australia

  On the nose – ripe fruits and spices. Deep and complex. More restrained and elegant than the former two tasted, but even though full bodied and bombastic, almost chewy. Excellent harmony between nose and mouth – big amounts of ripe fruits and spices also in the palate. Excellent.

This wine was not part of the tasting. One of the gays in the panel, ordered it after the tasting finished and we all enjoyed it.

  Exquisite. Complex nose with a lot of a lot: red and dark fruits, perfumed and earthy – "Old World" aromas. Full bodied, round and balanced. Nice acidity and a sweet finish
