Okay, calm down! I’m feeling rushed. But OOOOH! Next in line is the 2009 Velvet Glove Shiraz – I was admiring the lovely shape of the bottle (belongs more for a Prosecco than a Shiraz), with actual velvet used on the label. At $180 per bottle price point (folks, that’s not a typo), I was interested in seeing if it lives up to the hype. Hmmmm, complex, fruity, balanced considering the 15.5% alcohol content. Beautiful inky black in color, and expensive enough that I think I’ll grab a new glass for the next round, and keep this one off to the side for later….
