Color: Deep dark red.
Aroma: A mélange of fruits explode on the nose; bright red berries, spiced plums and chocolate coupled with subtle hints of fresh flowers and cedary oak.
Palate: Pure and focused with lively black berries, black pepper and bitter chocolate. Lovely bright acids and fine yet tight tannins provide the ideal framework to a palate that is both long and pure. This wine has the intensity and power without ever feeling rich or heavy. A great Gnarly Dudes from an equally great 2012 Barossa vintage.

93 points This is undeniably medium to full-bodied, but does not overwhelm you with the Parkeresque gobfuls of fruit; here tannins replace the bitter chocolate to provide a savoury/earthy flourish to a very good wine. James Halliday's Wine Companion Magazine, January 2014 91 points From a top vintage, this is one of Two Hands' best-value reds. It's deep red-purple, rich and blackberry scented, succulently fruit-sweet, with supportive oak and soft tannins, finishing with length and authority. Drink now to 2027.
