This 2022 edition was stored in all new American oak and weights in at 16.5% alcohol but the freshness backing everything up makes this everything but boozy. The weight and pillowy texture really drives this wine as it effortlessly glides throughout the drinking experience. Opulent dark and blue fruits meld effortlessly with dark chocolate shavings, graphite, scorched earth and shades of sweet pipe tobacco on the palate. This is a joy to drink.\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e- \u003cspan\u003eOwen Bargreen\u003c\/span\u003e 97 Points\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"timelesswines.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45076734607407,"sku":"452087","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/lovebtlcarn_1d255ff3-09b3-40a6-b794-0a32e2be9d2f.jpg?v=1773988719","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/mollydooker-shiraz-carnival-of-love-2022","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
