KAESLER 2004 SHIRAZ THE BOGAN

Product Details:

 A great example of superior Australian Shiraz, balancing intensity and intricacy in a fashion rarely achieved elsewhere...

Robert Parker on the 2002:  The 2002 Shiraz The Bogan, which is aged 22 months in American oak before being bottled unfiltered, is a spectacular, classic example of Barossa Shiraz. An inky/purple color is accompanied by a huge bouquet of white flowers, toast, blackberry liqueur, blueberries, and creosote. Packed with intensely concentrated black fruits and a spicy complexity, it is the antithesis of elegance. While still an infant in terms of development, it is hard to know for sure, but I suspect it will become more civilized and elegant as it evolves, and should last for 15-20+ years. Rating: 96 points
