Mollydooker Wines Velvet Glove McLaren Vale Shiraz 2022

Mollydooker is a hot new label from Australia - try one of the highest-rated Shiraz' ever while its still available. 96 Points Robert Parker: "The most dense and concentrated of the current Mollydooker offerings is the Mollydooker Velvet Glove Shiraz. Because of that, it’s also among the most fruit-forward, with the oak elements of vanilla, mocha and cedar pushed into the background in favor of ripe raspberries and blackberries. Taut and focused for its size, this full-bodied effort is smooth and creamy textured on the palate, where the fruit glides into a long, velvety finish." Winemaker Notes: Dense, dark and brooding in the glass, the Mollydooker 2018 Velvet Glove is complex and opulent. Black plum, blueberries and roasted coffee intermingle with anise in its lifted fragrance. A supremely smooth mouthfeel like molten chocolate accentuates the precise balance of structure and expresses deep flavours of berries, whilst liquorice and allspice linger on the palate. 2018 has produced a Velvet Glove of incredible eminence and elegance that is truly the pinnacle of Mollydooker Wines. Barrel fermented and matured: 100% American oak 100% new. Sustainable grown.     Mollydooker (the Australian equivalent of “Southpaw”– both Sparky and Sarah Marquis are left-handed) is the label of the renowned winemaking team of Sparky and Sarah Marquis.
