(WineSpectator) - Sparky and Sarah Marquis part ways, and she continues their brand while he contemplates solo projects.

Sarah Marquis, half of one of Australia's best-known wine partnerships, has acquired a controlling share of the prominent Australian winery Mollydooker from her ex-husband, Sparky Marquis. The transfer was finalized April 28.

After their separation in December 2015, Sparky, 51, managed the company through 2016. When he offered to buy out Sarah’s share of the company, he gave her the choice to buy him out under the same terms.

At first Sarah, 46, wanted to continue the business partnership, but by February 2017 she decided that she wanted management control of the winery and agreed to purchase control, as part of court proceedings related to their divorce. The couple's divorce became final April 4.

Although Sparky was the highly visible voice of Mollydooker, Sarah was involved in all aspects of the business. She was responsible for the whimsical labels and wine names, such as the tête-de-cuvée Shiraz Velvet Glove, the entry-level Shiraz The Boxer and the Cabernet-Merlot blend Two Left Feet.
