Kaesler Old Vine Shiraz 2023

It’s sourced from vines that were planted back in the 1960s and taken from cuttings from the Old Bastard vineyard of 1893. It comes off three estate blocks and was traditionally handled before maturation for sixteen months before release. On the nose, there are bright red fruits with a distinctly raspberry juby character and a smidgen of vanilla pod swirling throughout. The palate has a soft suppleness about it, with deep flavorsome red fruits and a little spicy lift. Integrated, balanced, and poised through to the finish. Excellent wine.
