I went to a Trader Joe’s and found the only shiraz in the store. It’s from California, not Australia, and is a good value for table red wine that lacks the body of a shiraz. I’ll stick to my double oaked full-bodied Barossa Valley shiraz. — 6 years ago

This has a nice aromatic nose that balances out with the taste. This is a classic 2012 shiraz that should be tried. — 8 years ago

Now I see why Two Hands is so popular with the critics. I swear I taste buttery roses in the aftertaste? It's sophisticated and a good representation of what a Barossa Valley Shiraz should taste like. — 7 years ago

There is a medicinal taste of fruit at first, but then there’s no body in the aftertaste. I’ve been a fan of pinots since Sideways came out and I’ve had better versions. — 6 years ago
