Tasting Note

Bright medium-deep crimson with a purple hue. On the palate an iron fist wrapped in a velvet glove, the 2020 is deep and brooding, from an incredibly low yielding vintage, this wine demands time in the cellar before opening. Lifted plum, redcurrant, some earth and a hint of charry oak in the background.

Product Notes

Kaesler Old Bastard Shiraz is an exquisite Australian wine, sourced from Shiraz grapes grown in vines dating back to 1893 in Barossa Valley. Rich in heritage, this vintage red is replete with robust, complex flavours. Red and blackberry notes, combined with hints of pepper and spice fill the palate, while touches of elegant oak and velvety tannins give a well-structured, balanced finish. Its deep purple hue is delightful to the eyes, complementing its intense fragrant aroma beautifully. Kaesler Old Bastard Shiraz commands reverence, to be savoured on special occasions, making a truly dignified statement in the world of fine wines.
