Old Bastard Shiraz 2019 Kaesler

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (96)

The 2019 Old Bastard Shiraz is from a single vineyard in the Barossa, which was planted in 1893. In the mouth, the wine is inky, intense, concentrated, black, midnight—you get the gist of it here. The fruit swirls through eddies of savory tannin that dust the sweet flavor in a sheath of exotic spice and red earth. This is a very, very good wine, seriously good. Given the vintage conditions of 2018 and 2019, I did not expect to prefer the 2019, but here we are. I love this. It's a big wine—excellent, balanced. 15% alcohol, sealed under natural cork and flexible wax.
