Two Hands : Lily's Garden 2019

Delivers maraschino cherry, raspberry coulis, Earl Grey tea and hints of custard on a rich, juicy frame, with accents of dark chocolate, dried herbs, palo santo and tobacco that linger on a long, expressive finish. Drink now through 2038. 600 cases imported.

There's a lovely combo of scrubby fresh herbs like thyme and sage with tart red and black currant and plum, with toasty vanilla oak influence. The mouthfeel is powerful with silky, succulent berry fruit and lifted acidity to keep it from jam territory. A modern style for drinking now or until around 2030.

Supple, rich and harmonious, the 2019 Lily's Garden Shiraz is drinking beautifully already. Hints of eucalyptus and sage add interest to the mixed-berry fruit, while the medium to full-bodied palate is almost creamy in texture, finishing long and luxuriously silky. Drink it over the next 6-8 years.
