This needs to develop more depth but if it does this could well be outstanding in time

(from 3 different parcels that total 2 ha)

This too is really quite good and should reward up to a decade of cellaring

There is better freshness on the palate along with excellent richness and concentration to the powerful and mouth coating middle weight plus flavors that deliver fine length on the very firm finale

Offers only modest density and length

Kaesler, Old Bastard Shiraz other_regions This needs to develop moreThis holds a reductive edge with meaty and toasty spice aromas, as well as dark stones and black fruit. The palate has such smooth, fine and consistent tannins with a long, supple and succulent run of ripe blackberry and dark plum flavors holding fresh. This needs a good decanting to open up and really changes in the glass. Drink or hold.
