Two Hands Wines was founded in the Barossa Valley in 1999 by Michael Twelftree and Richard Mintz. Their first Shiraz vintage was in 2000 and in 2004 the owners completed a state-of-the-art winery. They source grapes from several regions and today the estate makes numerous labels, though the prestige label is the Flagship Series group of Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache and Mataro wines. Other labels include the more fanciful Garden Series and the Single Vineyard Series. Robert M. Parker Jr. has noted that “Two Hands is a negociant run impeccably by Michael Twelftree. It reflects the best that can be sourced from all over South Australia.”
