This meticulous approach results in a wine with exceptional balance, complexity and depth. Mollydooker The Velvet Glove Shiraz features dark fruit, chocolate, coffee and exotic spices in a smooth palate with perfectly integrated tannins that provide structure without overpowering the wine's innate elegance.
