TWO HANDS Secret Block Shiraz, Barossa Valley 2019 Bottle
About this wine
Two Hands’ Single Vineyard wines take regionality to a high level by focussing on sites that justify individual treatment by consistently producing wines of distinctive style with particular qualities. They are simply named after the block, the road or the township they come from. Here’s Joe Czerwinski, writing for the important U.S. publication Wine Advocate: ‘Two Hands is making a collection of Shirazes that may be unrivalled in the world for expressing the places where they're grown... Tasting through the lineup is a fabulous exercise in seeing how Shiraz reflects its place’.
‘So few vineyards have the X-factor, but these are great sites that come to the fore each vintage.’ - Michael Twelftree
Hands-on proprietor Michael Twelftree has identified key sites that do have the X-factor, and the Secret Block in the Barossa Valley is one. The site, in the Moppa Hills sub-region, typically makes a wine with seductive aromas, great elegance and exceptional fruit and tannin structure. The small production is handled separately, from crushing and fermentation through to oak maturation, with the decision on every barrel’s ultimate destination left until six months after vintage, when each one is assessed (and may be declassified if it fails to meet the wine’s high standards). With minimum intervention in the winery and discreet use of oak, the aim is to give character of place the best possible chance to assert itself.
