Two Hands Brave Faces GMS 2023 from the Barossa is a dark, mouth‑filling Grenache‑Mataro‑Shiraz that delivers plush fruit, spice and serious drinkability in a big, crowd‑pleasing style. Two Hands Brave Faces 2023 captures that generous Barossa warmth but keeps enough freshness to stop things feeling heavy. It is made for sharing around a busy table.

In the glass you’ll see deep purple‑red colour, aromatics of raspberry, black cherry and plum from Grenache, with darker berry, earth, game and pepper from Mataro and Shiraz. The palate is medium‑full, layered with juicy red and black fruits, liquorice, baking spice and a touch of dried herbs. Ripe, velvety tannins give shape without ever feeling hard, leaving a long, softly spicy finish.

This is spot‑on with grilled lamb chops, snags and smoky beef ribs off the barbie, or a slow‑cooked lamb shoulder. It also loves pizza with cured meats, rich pasta ragu, or a platter of aged cheddar and other hard cheeses. Serve just below room temperature so the fruit stays fresh and the alcohol sits in balance.
