With a philosophy centred on showcasing regional character, the winery sources fruit from top vineyards across South Australia’s most distinguished Shiraz appellations. \u003cem data-start=\"609\" data-end=\"625\"\u003eBella’s Garden\u003c\/em\u003e represents the pinnacle of their Barossa Valley selections — a cuvée crafted from exceptional parcels chosen for power, purity, and aromatic depth. Year after year, Bella’s Garden is celebrated for its richness, vibrancy, and impeccable balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"873\" data-end=\"1366\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"873\" data-end=\"885\"\u003eVineyard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"885\" data-end=\"888\"\u003eSourced from a selection of premium Barossa Valley vineyard sites, Bella’s Garden benefits from a diversity of elevations, soil profiles, and vine ages. Deep red-brown loams over clay, ironstone-rich soils, and warmer valley-floor parcels contribute layers of intensity and plush fruit weight. Many of the vines are low-yielding and dry-grown, enhancing concentration and natural tannin structure. Each vineyard block is vinified separately before final selection for the blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1368\" data-end=\"1773\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1368\" data-end=\"1379\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1379\" data-end=\"1382\"\u003eThe 2022 vintage in the Barossa Valley was shaped by a mild growing season with excellent retention of natural acidity. A cool start, followed by warm, dry conditions during late summer, produced Shiraz of exceptional purity, vibrant fruit, and balanced tannins. Lower yields resulted in wines with concentration without excess ripeness — a standout year delivering both freshness and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1775\" data-end=\"2187\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1775\" data-end=\"1789\"\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1789\" data-end=\"1792\"\u003eThe fruit was hand-picked and fermented in small open vats with regular pump-overs and gentle extraction. Maturation took place in a mix of French oak hogsheads, including a portion of new oak to enhance structure and spice complexity. Each parcel was tasted extensively before blending to ensure the final cuvée reflects Bella’s Garden’s hallmark style: bold, aromatic, and impeccably polished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2189\" data-end=\"2726\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2189\" data-end=\"2206\"\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2206\" data-end=\"2209\"\u003eThe 2022 \u003cem data-start=\"2218\" data-end=\"2251\"\u003eTwo Hands Bella’s Garden Shiraz\u003c\/em\u003e opens with expressive aromas of blackberry, plum, blueberry compote, dark chocolate, violets, licorice, and warm spice.
