Two Hands Cabernet Sauvignon Sexy Beast 2022

Founded in 1999 by Michael Twelftree and Richard Mintz, Two Hands Wines has earned an international reputation for crafting bold, expressive wines that showcase regional diversity. Based in Barossa Valley but sourcing grapes from across Australia’s premium regions, the winerys philosophy revolves around minimal intervention and highlighting varietal and site character. Sexy Beast is part of their Picture Series, known for its approachable yet high-quality offerings.

This 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon pours a deep ruby with a youthful, vibrant hue. Aromas of blackberry, cassis, and crushed violets are layered with hints of mint, dark chocolate, and subtle oak spice. The palate is plush and medium- to full-bodied, showing ripe dark fruits, firm tannins, and fresh acidity. It finishes long with notes of blackcurrant and cedar, balanced by a polished mouthfeel. Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, it drinks well now but will evolve gracefully over the next 57 years. The wine is not certified organic.
