Mollydooker says:
The 2022 Boxer boasts a robust foundation of dark fruit, black cherries, moccha, and a hint of clove spice that comes alive in the glass. Its velvety texture delivers notes of fresh plum, balanced tannins, and a subtle touch of toasted oak, all of which enhance the richness of the fruit. This wine offers a complex experience with multiple layers that are sure to impress.
Wine writer Owen Bargreen says:
A killer value, the 2022 ‘The Boxer’ Shiraz offers tar, espresso bean and rich dark fruits on the nose with shades of black florals. Medium to full-bodied and delicious, enjoy now and over the next few years.
And 94 points from Australia’s WineSpider:
Fruit was sourced from McLaren Vale and Langhorne Creek with maturation taking place in 100% American oak of which 38% was new. Dense inky black in colour with a deep dark red black tinged hue. Potent liquorice and black plum scents flood the nostrils with some black raspberry, vanillin oak, fennel and subtle peppered earth notes also evident. Rich and voluptuously textured the palate is coated with a thick layer of liquorice, black plum and blackberry fruit.
A superb vintage for Mollydooker’s calling card. Boxer fans will love this one.
