Mollydooker The Scooter Merlot 2023 750ml is a vibrant and silky Merlot from Mollydooker Wines, produced from grapes grown on the Long Gully Road vineyard in McLaren Vale, South Australia.
The Scooter is named after Sparky, who raced a large-wheel scooter when he was younger. The 2023 vintage displays Mollydooker's fruit-forward style, combining fragrant cherry and forest-fruit aromas with fresh plum, sweet berries and subtle baking spices.
The wine was barrel fermented and matured in 97% American oak and 3% French oak, using a combination of new and older barrels. The 2023 vintage has an actual Marquis Fruit Weight™ of 67%, reflecting its generous fruit concentration while retaining balance and delicate tannins.
