2010 Carnival of Love Shiraz Mollydooker Wines, McLaren Vale (0,75l)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2010 Carnival of Love Shiraz, Mollydooker Wines

Produced of 100% Shiraz from a single vineyard, the 2010 Carnival of Love was aged in American oak, 97% new. Very deep purple-black in color, it is intensely scented of blueberry preserves, creme de cassis and warm black cherries with an undercurrent of baking spices, licorice, mocha, vanilla, toast and eucalypt. Very full and densely packed with warm blackberry and spice flavors on the palate, it has a solid structure of medium to firm velvety tannins and very crisp acid, giving way to a very long finish. Still quite tight and primary, it should drink best 2014 to 2023+. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Dez. 2011
