The 2022 Kaesler The Bogan Shiraz is a bold and full-bodied Barossa Valley red, crafted from old vine Shiraz (including plantings dating back to 1899), delivering a powerful yet polished expression of classic Australian Shiraz. It reflects the richness and intensity of the region while maintaining balance and structure. The nose is deep and expressive, showing dark plum, blueberry and blackberry, layered with notes of charcuterie, cedar, tobacco and subtle vanilla from oak maturation.
On the palate, it is full-bodied, dense and richly textured, with layers of dark fruit, spice and savoury complexity supported by fine, polished tannins. The finish is long, smooth and powerful yet balanced, offering both immediate impact and long-term ageing potential. The style is bold, structured and unmistakably Barossa, combining intensity with refinement.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a classic premium Barossa Shiraz for customers who enjoy rich, full-bodied reds with depth and ageing potential. It’s impressive now with decanting or can be cellared for 10–20+ years. Perfect with steak, lamb shanks, slow-cooked meats or hearty dishes.
