Devon Magee, JJ Buckley, December 2011

This is truly Aussie Cab made on Napa soil. Bright, primary cassis flourishes on the nose. Tobacco leaves envelope the fruit mirrored on the palate, along with nuances of cedar. This unique expression of Napa Valley Cab is absolutely delicious. With plenty of structure and focused tannins behind the primary fruit, you can lay this down for a decade or more and taste it slowly evolve.

About Winery

The 'two hands' are Michael Twelftree and Richard Mintz who formed the company in 1999 with the clear objective of making the best possible shiraz based wines from prized shiraz producing regions within Australia.

In 2000 they started with just 17 tonnes of fruit from the McLaren Vale and Padthaway wine regions. From the beginning the wines were very well received at home and abroad with a healthy stream of reviews, culminating in 2004 with Robert M. Parker pronouncing Two Hands as "the finest negociant operation south of the equator".

Since the winery opened,Two Hands Wines were listed in the Wine Spectator  Top 100 for the last five years with two listings in the top 10, most recently the 2005 Bella's Garden Barossa Valley Shiraz at #5 and The Ares voted one of the 25 Benchmark Wines of Australia.  Consistent 90+ reviews from Robert Parker Jnr's Wine Advocate, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, James Halliday's Wine Companion, Wine Spectator and the UK Decanter magazine is further testament to the company's ability to capture the terroir of each vineyard and carefully nurture the characteristics of each parcel.
 
Two Hands continues to extend its distribution around the world, branching out from the Australian domestic and United States of America markets to now include the export markets of the United Kingdom, Asia, Canada, New Zealand and the European Union.
