2018 The Bogan Shiraz

Kaesler has been one of the beauties in our Australia Range since we were first introduced to their range of Barossa icons a few years back. Hailing from the dried out, sunscorched end of one of the hottest wine regions on earth, their intoxicatingly full and exciting range of Shiraz's has won plaudits, medals, gongs and universal acclaim across the world. Just recently, their Bogan shiraz (a mere stripling, with vines from 1899 and 1965) won Platinum at the IWC. The Old Bastard Shiraz, from a complete 1891 vineyard, has been consistently regarded as one of the most celebrated wines of the region for...well, centuries! Bogan Shiraz is well known to be a quintessential, full bodied style of Shiraz. The two Shiraz vineyards from which this wine is sourced complement each other well – The Marananga block provides intense, old vine produce with particular “blue fruit” offerings. The Nuriootpa block provides more “black fruits.” Winner of Australia’s Best Shiraz, Great Australian Shiraz Challenge.
