Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
High-toned on the nose, coming close to a hint of mail polish, which detracts slightly from the flavors of stewed berries and dark chocolate. It’s full-bodied and round, leaving an almost confected impression on the palate.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Despite an elevated alcohol level of 15.5%, the 2007 Bella’s Garden Shiraz displays a crisp, red raspberry fruitiness framed by cedar and cocoa. It’s surprisingly focused for this level of ripeness, the structure imparted more by acids than tannins. Drink it over the near term.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This wine’s 16.2% alcohol is a dominant feature, and although it offers some rich raisined aromas and flavors of dried fruit and spice, it starts warm and finishes hot. Drink now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
There’s no doubting the quality of this wine, which exudes class and refinement. It’s not as plush as some other Aussie Grenaches, but deftly marries kirsch, vanilla and dried spices into an integrated and complex whole. Firm on the finish, with a bit of a tart edge.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Cassis, licorice and caramel on the nose signal what’s to come in the mouth: This wine’s a big, bright fruit bomb, full of sweet blackberry and blueberry fruit with some caramel thrown in for good measure. Full-on fruit can be a good thing, but a little restraint in this case wouldn’t hurt.

Two Hands Red Blend - 2002

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Nose is a sexy cocktail of pastry crust, black fruit and caramel—palate flavors are similar but more subdued. Still, there’s nice grip in the back palate. Finishes with fine, oaky tannins.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Somewhat precariously balanced at 15.7% alcohol, this may not turn out to be the most long-lived Shiraz, but it is delicious for current consumption. The tannins are soft and creamy in texture, while the blueberry and black berry fruit is intensely concentrated, tinged with nuances of vanilla, menthol and chocolate.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Minty, plummy and chocolaty, with a soft, velvety texture, this is a solid example of the Shiraz Langhorne Creek is capable of producing. Some will criticize the slightly eucalypt character, while others will laud its regional character. Drink now–2015.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This ambitious offering from Two Hands is a bit of dissappointment. The bold black cherry fruit seems slightly cooked or raisiny, and there’s a grassy, herbal element as well. But it’s also nicely concentrated and weighty, with a mouthwatering finish that redeems it.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Stone fruit (particularly an alluring apricot-nectarine combination) dominates this viscous, fairly full Riesling, which has nice acidity and a finish that tastes like lemon drops. Breathe deeply enough and you’re sure to find almonds.
