Saturday, September 4, 2010 - I don't know how these guys do it but they definitely can put their stamp on a bottle of wine. I have had a dozen or so bottles from Two Hands and they can really extract the fruit from the grapes. This Napa Cab was so reminiscent of their Lily's Garden Shiraz that it really is quite a feat, to take a different varietal, grown 1/2 a globe away and make it a "Two Hands" wine. I really would like to taste the two winds blind and I think I will save a bottle of each for a tasting because I am writing these notes from memory of the last bottle of Lily's I tasted a few months ago.
Anyway, dark purple, thick viscous wine with a long, long finish that lingers. Smooth soft tannins, I always wonder if these wines will age but find myself drinking them young so who knows. Okay 2015 we will taste the 2007 Charlies Patch Cab vs. the 2007 Lily's Garden Shiraz, stay tuned.

FWIW - i would attribute a good bit of the results to Thomas Rivers Brown ... outstanding winemaker who is doing good things with a number of winemakers and his own label Rivers-Marie (get on the mailing list -- good wine at good prices). re Charlies patch, I haven't had the 07 yet, but liked the 06 a good deal.
