{"product_id":"2023-kaesler-old-vine-shiraz","title":"2023 Kaesler Old Vine Shiraz","description":"\u003cp\u003eKaesler’s Old Vine Shiraz is a proper Barossa classic. It’s built from three estate-grown blocks planted right around the winery, with vines ranging from 40 to well over 100 years old. This is the kind of wine that doesn't feel the need to chase trends; it’s just a bold, soulful, and incredibly well-built red that shows exactly why old-vine Barossa Shiraz is world-famous.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 season was one of the wettest and coolest in recent memory, which pushed harvest back by nearly a month. This slow ripening turned out to be a blessing, giving the winemakers fruit with a level of elegance and lively acidity that you don't always see in warmer years. After 16 months in a mix of new and seasoned French oak, the wine has developed a plush, velvety texture that balances out the dense black fruit and warm spices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite the cooler year, it's still rich and complex, leading with blackberries and plums, but it stays remarkably balanced thanks to those fine, delicate tannins. It’s a wine with serious staying power - classic, honest, and expertly crafted. If you’re looking for a Barossa Shiraz that has depth and length without going completely over the top, this is exactly what you want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I like the '23 vintage from the Barossa. There's a concentration and depth to the fruit without any overbearing heaviness to the wine's form. Red plum and dark berry fruits with fruitcake spice, dark chocolate, pan juices, purple flowers, gentle oak and earth. There's a savoury palate shape here; sleek and showing just the right amount of sinewy and verve at it sails forward.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Dave Brooks (Halliday Wine Companion)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Kaesler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44029628907563,"sku":"2023 Kaesler Old Vine Shiraz","price":110.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2572\/9722\/files\/2022KaeslerOldVineShiraz.png?v=1750657051","url":"https:\/\/www.differentdrop.com\/products\/2023-kaesler-old-vine-shiraz","provider":"Different Drop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
