Two Hands Bella's Garden Shiraz 2019 750ml

Rich concentrated black on black. Gentle and slow aromatics of blueberry, raspberries, fresh ground pepper, wet river rocks, blood plum, fresh cigar and fresh backed Rhubarb souffle. This hits the mouth with a medium weight and then the race begins. It unfurls like rolling of a sail, never boring or uninteresting. It just penetrates and keeps pumping away, with not a whisker out of place. This wine pitches deep but then the fruit weight and slow-moving texture takes over. It is admirable in its evenness and at the end of the ride you are left with a mouthful of very persistent tannins with a slight meaty edge and underlining deep minerally energy.

92 Points - Wine Spectator

Aromatic and fresh, with violet, sage and fresh earth notes and plenty of baking spice to accent the wild blackberry, blueberry and spiced plum flavors, which linger on a juicy, velvety frame.

92 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Largely dark-fruited, the 2019 Bella's Garden Shiraz boasts scents of blackberries, plums and cola. It's medium to full-bodied, supple and almost creamy in texture, finishing with savory notes of black olive and spice. While it's not as flamboyant as some of the other Garden series wines this year, it shows remarkable harmony and complexity.
