TWO HANDS CHARLIE’S GARDEN SHIRAZ 2022 Eden Valley, South Australia

INVINITI SAUVIGNON BLANC 2025 Marlborough, South Island, sustainable, vegan

The 2022 Charlie’s Garden Shiraz is classically Eden Valley, pulling together the threads of DNA that runs between these Garden Shiraz wines. Each expresses the clear identity of the places from which they spring, and here, the Eden Valley shines through in the crushed quartz, leather strap, raspberry pip, licorice, raw cocoa, grated nutmeg and graphite. It’s an elegant wine that manages thrust and dry power alongside nuance and detail. 14.4% alcohol, sealed under Diam. Drink date: 2025®2032. Score: 93 (Erin Larkin, robertparker.com, March 13, 2025) Full-bodied & Smooth 15997 (XD) 750 ml $64.95 2

A lovely example with a bouquet of freshness and energy, aromas of passionfruit and red apple, some zesty lemon peel and pink grapefruit. On the palate a plush, juicy and fleshy textured wine with core flavours of fresh apple and tropical fruits surrounded by citrus and gooseberry notes and framed by acidity and wet pebble mineral suggestions. Balanced, well made and ready to drink from 2025 through 2027. Premium. Score: 91 (Cameron Douglas, MS, camdouglasms.com, Oct. 7, 2025) Aromatic & Flavourful 36907 (XD) 750 ml $18.95 2
