Two Hands : Lily's Garden 2019

A generous and round McLaren Vale red wine by Two Hands

The estate

Michael Twelftree and Richard Mintz founded Two Hands in 1999, their goal being to produce wines that highlight the nuances and aromatic potential of fine Australian wines.

The vineyard

Spread across six different regions, Two Hands' vineyards produce wines that enhance the potential and nuances of each terroir. Each plot is managed independently, from harvesting, through to fermentation, oak ageing and bottling, in order to allow the wine to express its full character and identity. Since its creation, Two Hands has been committed to producing organic wines. "Quality without compromise" is the core value of this visionary company, be it in the way they make their wines and in their choice of names or labels.

The wine

This 2019 Lily's Garden by Two Hands comprises a blend of the finest Shiraz barrels from the best McLaren Vale terroirs (Blewitt Springs, Clarendon, McLaren Flat, McLaren Vale, Seaview, Tatachilla, Willunga Hills). The vineyards are between 15 to 60 years old and are located between 75 and 320 metres above sea level on sandy maritime and sedimentary soils.

The label’s blue colour resonates with McLaren Vale's geographical proximity to the sea.

The blend

100% Shiraz.
