A wine at the zenith of Two Hands production that embodies our finest selection of these classic white varietals.
Inspired by the myths of ancient Greece the Flagship Series is headed by our Ares Shiraz. Adrestia is the goddess of equilibrium and balance. This wine embodies the balance between blending Semillon's depth and the subtle lift of the small percentage of Sauvignon Blanc in the wine.
Inspired by the classic white wines of Bordeaux this blend brings the citrus zest and aging ability of Semillon with the floral, lifted aromatics of Sauvignon Blanc. Wonderfully bright and crisp now, this wines will age gracefully in your cellar for many more years.
Scores & Reviews
"What really stands out first in this wine is youthful vitality, considering young age – this wine is taking its time and still has a way to go. The fruit is piquant and lifted – kaffir lime leaf, lanolin and honeydew with subtle barrel spice. It’s delicate and detailed. Bright and juicy, the palate is textural, more citrus fruits and oak making for a wine of substance. There is also understated power and bright acidity which all lead through to a long yet fine finish. It is not quite ready yet but when you do choose to crack one match it up with salmon sushi and sashimi."

Adrestia | Perfect Pairings
Adrestia with its delicate acidity, subtle oak influence matches include seafood like grilled scallops, oysters, and lobster with lemon butter, as the wine’s freshness enhances their natural sweetness and briny character. Poultry dishes such as roast chicken with herbs or grilled turkey also work well, especially when paired with herbaceous sides. Soft cheeses like Brie or goat cheese complement the wine’s citrus and creamy texture, while aged cheddar balances nicely with its acidity. For lighter fare, consider grilled asparagus, herb-infused salads, or a vegetable terrine to echo the wine’s herbaceous and refined profile. Overall, this versatile wine is an excellent companion to dishes that highlight freshness, subtlety, and balanced flavours.
