Joe Posts Press Release!
July 22, 2007

Joe Dressner scooped me on the press release of the week. Please visit joedressner.com for a bird's eye view into the success of Mollydooker wines.

These wines have provoked poetry induced rave reviews by Mr. Parker such as the one copied below:

**
Amazingly, the 2005 Carnival of Love ratchets up the level of quality. A selection of the finest Shiraz barrels, it boasts an extraordinary black/purple color, gorgeous notes of blackberry liqueur, camphor, and smoke, and an enormous voluptuousness that would make even Pamela Anderson jealous. Great purity, symmetry, and harmony as well as remarkable balance for such a rich, intense wine, as it sat in the glass espresso, vanillin, white chocolate, and additional black fruits also emerged. It should drink well for a decade, although the winemakers suggest it be consumed over the next four years. If you are wondering what to serve with this beauty, Sarah and Sparky Marquis recommend such fish as marlin, hammerhead, and great white shark, white meats such as snake and crocodile, red meats such as emu and kangaroo, and aged wallaby mild cheese. Yum! Readers should not forget the value-priced Mollydooker cuvees from Sarah and Sparky Marquis that I recommended in issue #165 (6-30-06), including the 2006 Verdelho The Violinist ($15; 92 points), 2005 Shiraz/Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot Two Left Feet ($20; 94 points), 2005 Cabernet The Maitre d’ ($20; 92 points), and 2005 Shiraz The Boxer ($20; 95 points).

Oh, c'mon, I posted that to therapy 10 days ago. You and Joe need to get with the program.

OK--credit where credit is due. Scooped by both Joes.

Well for a regular Joe like me, I thought it was pretty good reading.

Keep up the fine work Alice... (And thanks for the post on Café Falai - I plan to get my bottle there, as well as another one back to the NoHo Star, very very soon.)
