Two Hands Single Vineyard Series

96 Points - Jeb Dunnuck "In the Single Vineyard series, the 2016 Shiraz Yacca Block Single Vineyard comes from the Eden Valley which is just to the west of Barossa. It offers a gorgeously complex bouquet of black raspberries, toasted spices, blackberries, ground pepper, and dried flowers. Deep, opulent, voluptuous, and incredibly texture on the palate, it has no hard edges, fine tannin, and a great finish. It’s my favorite of the Single Vineyard releases and can be drunk anytime over the coming 10-15 years."

95 Points - Joe Czerwinski (erobertparker.com) "Sourced from Clare Valley, the 2016 Shiraz Heartbreak Hill Roach Road Hut is a terrific wine, not out of place at all among the Barossans in the Two Hands line-up. Loaded with raspberry fruit and dried spices, it’s full-bodied, supple and long, with fine-grained, silky tannins that caress the palate. Remarkable, given the vines are only 12-13 years old."

94 points - Jeb Dunnuck "The inky colored 2016 Shiraz Heartbreak Hill Single Vineyard comes from the Clare Valley which is north of Adelaide. This region is mostly known for Riesling and consists of a north-south running valley and a continental climate (cool/cold nights and warm hot days). Its deep purple color is followed by a concentrated yet elegant Shiraz that offers plenty of black and blue fruits, dark chocolate, and crushed rock/mineral aromas and flavors. Picking up more violet and spice nuances with time in the glass, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a silky texture, beautiful purity of fruit, and a great finish. This beauty shines for its finesse and elegance and has enough tannin to benefit from 2-3 years of bottle age. It will keep for over a decade."

The 2016 Shiraz Holy Grail Single Vineyard comes from the Barossa Valley and was brought up in roughly 20% new French oak puncheons and Hogsheads. This single vineyard release was first made in 2015. The 2016 has a ripe, sexy bouquet of plum and cassis fruit intermixed with terrific notes of mulled spices, chocolate, dried violets, and licorice. Ripe, layered, and concentrated on the palate, with moderate acidity and sweet tannin, it’s a hedonist, classic Barossa Shiraz to drink over the coming decade.

94+ Points - Jeb Dunnuck "Another elegant, fresh Shiraz from Michael, the 2016 Shiraz Secret Block Single Vineyard offers classic blueberries, violets, exotic spice, and pepper on the nose. This gives way to a medium to full-bodied 2016 that has integrated acidity, a seamless, balanced texture, and building richness. It’s a classy, pure Shiraz that does everything right. Give it another year or two and it’s going to drink nicely for a decade or more."

Secret by name, and secret by nature, this magical vineyard hides behind mulitple locked gates and windy trails, nestled away with some of the regions best vineyards.

De-stemmed to open stainless steel and concrete fermenters, pumped over and plunged twice daily, 13-18 days on skins, matured in French puncheons and hogsheads (18% new) for 19 months. Deep, dense colour; the striking bouquet exudes savoury pipe tobacco and smoke aromas, spices also seeking airplay. The full-bodied palate features a titanic struggle between the plethora of black fruits and insistent high quality tannins evident from the first sip all the way through to the aftertaste. Remarkable wine.

The first part of this site was purchased in 2008 and included 52 acres of vacant land. The vision was to wait until resources permitted and plant this ares of land as specifically as possible. Just before the 2015 vintage a further 37 acres of land were purchased, which included 16 acres of established shiraz vines. This vineyard produced 27 tonnes in its first vintage, with fruit going into My Hands, Ares, Single Vineyard and a few barrels to Bella’s Garden. Development of the unplanted site began in April 2016, with planting to commence in the spring.
