Dave Morgan brought this bottle to Eric's down-under tasting and then couldn't stay to enjoy most of the tasting because he had to deliver a speech! He was able to come over later in the evening, and we scrounged up some leftovers for him... Two Hands is becoming more and more popular in America, for good reason. Its structure is exciting -- tightly wound black fruit with dark chocolate and a spicy finish. It's a bit of an oddity amongst the large array of Shirax that we tasted over the course of the evening -- it would be easily mistaken for California Cabernet or Bordeaux. $45; 89 points
