The best price anywhere for what may be the single best Mollydooker Cabernet ever. (There are two levels of Shiraz above this: Carnival of Love and Velvet Glove. But Gigglepot is their top Cabernet, and I believe their only single-vineyard luxury offering.)
Bargreen (who also reviews wines for Vinous) says:
The 2020 Mollydooker ‘Gigglepot’ Cabernet Sauvignon is a sensational new wine that was sourced from the Rivers Lane and McLaren Vale Vineyards. Grapes for this wine were picked March 27th, as this was aged in mostly American oak (81%) prior to bottling. Sandalwood and black currant cordial fill the nose, with suggestions of bay leaf and black rose petals that all sing in unison. The palate is beautifully balanced, with good weight and bright acidity. Rich dark fruits and chocolate cake tones combine with a seamless texture on the palate. This comes off very refined and weightless, as this beautiful wine will continue to drink well over the next ten years. Drink 2022-2032
The Gigglepot was a huge favorite at our tasting with Luke (above even the Shirazes) – and I suspect it will be again.
