Description

97/100+ points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
The 2009 Velvet Glove is 100% Shiraz matured in American oak, 97% new. Very deep garnet purple colored, it gives intense warm blackberry, choco-mint, smoked bacon and marmite-toast aromas with nuances of coffee, roasted nuts and vanilla. Floral notes of violets and potpourri emerge after a few minutes. Very rich, very crisp, concentrated and full, there’s a good backbone of firm, very fine tannins and crisp acid leading into the very long and layered finish. This is a very well balanced, structured wine that should begin to open-out with 2-3 years in bottle, drinking 2014 to 2024+.

If you like big wines, this is it! Really enjoyed.
I would drink this wine in the 2014-2017 timeframe, it is all about the fruit.

Tasted vs Brookman and I was surprised the Mollydooker was tastier.

9/6/2013 - WREN460 WROTE:94 Points
Ok, if I were scoring this wine for what it wants to be, it should easily be a 97-98 pt wine. It is a beast of a wine, super concentrated, mega delicious, extremely chewy. It is a very fun wine indeed. The wine has years and years left and I think it is young right now.

55 years and 1 day: The old man and his wine (Double blind tasting) (Vinozeros - Winterthur): Butter, honey, candied-nut-tart, cookie dough, caramel, licorice, raspberries and mixed herbs. This is a flavour rollercoster!

Nose; plums, violets, vanilla, and molasses. palate; blackberries, milk chocolate, bacon fat, and spices. High tannins. 60 second plus finish. Very balanced. Yet another excellent velvet glove from Mollydooker. Can they keep this up, release to release? I surely hope so.
