Two Left Feet 2020 is a rich, powerful red blend from Mollydooker, made with Shiraz, Merlot, and Cabernet—all from McLaren Vale. Thanks to a warm vintage and a bit of bottle age, it’s bold, smooth, and full of lush flavors like plum, chocolate, and spice. Classic Mollydooker—big, plush, and seriously fun to drink.

2020 was a warm, dry vintage, but the red wines from McLaren show brilliant vitality and freshness. In this 2020 Two Left Feet Shiraz Merlot Cabernet, the composition reads as follows: 69% Shiraz, 16% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, this time all McLaren Vale sourced. The warm season (and the extra year in bottle) works wonders for this style—it's already ballsy and dense, but with the sunshine and the bottle age, everything is coming together nicely.

Its brings richness as well as depth and the Cabernet provides firm tannins and dark blackberry flavours. The combination creates great complexity but also great length, mocha and spice are the lasting flavours but each new taste shows more attractive fruit and delicious flavours.

This wine is a spectacular example of how Shiraz, Merlot and Cabernet can be blended together to create flavours that complement each other so well. Lavish aromas of chocolate, cherry and vanilla cream, lead to a palate of deep plum, spice and liquorice. With soft, integrated tannins and lingering flavours, this is an opulent wine and seriously delicious.

The grapes were grown on the Mollydooker vineyards in McLaren Vale. Barrel fermented and matured in 98% American and 2% French oak using 39% new, 47% one year old and 14% two year old barrels.
