winemaker's notes:

This awesome Shiraz is superbly complete and complex, with stunning beauty and power. It wraps your entire palate in a velvet glove of amazing fruit flavours that seem to last forever. We only make it the years we are blessed with exceptional fruit.

To honour the beauty and individuality of our Velvet Glove Shiraz, we seal it in a unique bottle, apply a real velvet label printed in silver foil, and then place the bottle in a gorgeous velvet bag embroided with silver thread. It's our labor of love to provide you with a joyful experience from beginning to end.

critical acclaim:

"Lithe, generous and beautifally proportioned, offering a seamless array of dark plum, blueberry and sandalwood flavors wrapped in a veil of fine-grained tannins. Finishes with an intriguing face-off of sweet fruit and spice that keeps on for quite a while. Best from 2011 through 2019. "

rating (9/23/2010):

I am so completely disappointed that this wine is no longer available. It is absolutely extraordinary - if I could figure out how to lick the bottle clean, I would! This was amazing - we could practically FEEL the nose as we opened the bottle (which wasn't easy to do, it's sealed in tight!), the savor of the full fruit flavor on the palette is incredible...and it just lingers and lasts on finish...but nowhere near long enough!
