Two Hands
“Quality without Compromise.”
– Two Hands
Founded in early 1999 by Michael Twelftree, Two Hands was established to make the best possible Shiraz with the aim of competing with the likes of Penfolds Grange and beyond. They wanted to showcase the diversity of Australian wines by highlighting regional characteristics and allowing the fruit flavors to be the main attraction of the wines. Their focus and dedication to producing quality wines in McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley, and even in the Western Ranges has enabled them to be featured among Wine Spectator’s Top 100 list. It’s no secret Two Hands has become one of the premier producers in the land of down under.
Tasting Notes
- WS97
- Rich and generous with its silky tannins and expressive black cherry, blackberry, huckleberry and meaty spice notes that flit through the long, round, oak-scented finish. Has great vibrancy and detail, and the finish lingers for days. Shiraz. Drink now through 2020. 417 cases imported.
- WA96
- The 2004 Shiraz Ares is spectacular. Aged 12 months in 100% new French oak, the Ares is produced from the finest 20 barrels from the Bella’s Garden cuvee. Inky/blue/purple with notes of graphite, blueberries, blackberries, black currants, licorice, and smoke, this is a full-bodied, super-rich, intense, fabulously pure, rich Shiraz with a multidimensional mid-palate as well as a 45+ second finish. It will benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age, and should keep for 2-3 decades. Rating: 96+
