Two Hands Ares Barossa Valley 2017

Description

The palate is lush and coating, with a strong core of ripe purple to black fruits. The mouthfeel and weight have an excellent energy and persistence. This wine is built for the long haul and will reward a long sleep in a quiet place for 10 to 20 years with ease. This is very impressive for the vintage, where concentration was not a given. It had to be made with quality fruit selection and a good hand in the winery.

"The mulberry and vanilla-scented 2017 Ares Shiraz is a full-bodied Barossa Shiraz, with sufficient structure to support at least 15 years of aging. Dark purple and saturated in color, it shows some faint herbal nuances as well—enough to keep the fruit from being monolithic or boring, not enough to be a distraction. The tannins are rich and ripe, imparting a velvety texture on the palate and lingering as a soft dustiness on the long finish.
96+ points."
(Joe Czerwinski, The Wine Advocate, July 2020)

Two Hands Wines

Two Hands was born in September 1999 when Michael Twelftree and Richard Mintz sat at a friend’s engagement party and decided it was time to make their own wine and market it on the world stage. The original aim was, and still is, to make the best possible Shiraz-based wines from prized growing regions throughout Australia. Showcasing the diversity of Australian Shiraz by highlighting regional and vineyard characteristics by allowing the fruit to be the primary feature of the wines.

South Australia

South Australia, the heart of Australian winemaking, is renowned for its diverse wine regions and exceptional quality. Home to the iconic Barossa Valley, the state produces some of the world's finest Shiraz, known for its bold, rich flavours. The cooler climate of the Adelaide Hills is perfect for elegant Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, while the Clare Valley is celebrated for its crisp, aromatic Riesling. McLaren Vale is famed for its robust Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon. The diverse terroir, from coastal regions to high-altitude vineyards, allows for a wide variety of grape varieties and wine styles. South Australia remains a must-visit destination for wine lovers seeking premium, world-class wines.
