2006 Mollydooker The Maitre D Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2005 Mollydooker was such a huge hit, I didn't hesitate grabbing a few bottles of the 2006 line. This ran me $20.


Menthol and anise on the nose and not much else but alcohol.


Huge and over the top – no tannin to really speak of, lots of fruit – cherries and berries with a bit of oak.


The finish lingers with more menthol, oak, and perhaps cherry.


It's a big wine and I'd call it somewhat dumb, but still enjoyable. This is one I'd save for the winter and enjoy on a cold night. If you see this, pick it up, it maybe tough to find in the coming weeks.
