Two Hands Coach House Block Single Vineyard Shiraz 2022 750ml
SKU: RDAU20225902
Two Hands Coach House Block Single Vineyard Shiraz 2022 is a premium single-vineyard Shiraz from Greenock in the renowned Barossa Valley. Sourced from estate-grown vines, this powerful yet refined wine showcases the richness of western Barossa with exceptional balance, complexity and elegance. The 2022 vintage combines concentrated dark fruit, savoury spice and finely structured tannins, making it an outstanding expression of Australian Shiraz.
The nose is intensely aromatic with blackberry, black plum, lavender and fresh earth, complemented by notes of black pepper, cocoa, baking spices, coal dust and balsam. The full-bodied palate delivers layers of blue fruit, spiced plum, milk chocolate and subtle herbal complexity, supported by balanced acidity and long, chewy tannins that lead to an impressively persistent finish. Approachable in its youth yet built for cellaring, it pairs beautifully with grilled steak, lamb, barbecue, venison and aged hard cheeses.

The 2022 Coach House Block Seppeltsfield Road Greenock Shiraz is polished and inky, with dark tannins underpinning the current of dark fruit. It is fresh, but it’s no wallflower in its delivery of punchy fruit and toasty oak. Everything feels nicely within range here, and I like it. Black and blue, graphite, asphalt, ozone—there’s a nice “concrete-feeling” purity here. 14.3% alcohol, sealed under Diam.
