Much like a favourite flannelette shirt, the Kaesler Bogan is full of warmth and personality. Creator Reid Bosward was determined to prove that being described as a ‘country bogan’ was no barrier to producing a fine Barossa Shiraz. Proof that a classy red transcends class. The Bogan is a quintessential, full-bodied Shiraz produced from an assemblage of estate vines planted in 1899 and 1960s.

The 2021 vintage was in a word ‘Brilliant’. Barossa saw cool and dry conditions which has produced excellent quality reds and whites. Great growing conditions combined with good yields created a memorable harvest, with all wines showing a wide array of aromas and flavours. Soft supple tannins are in abundance in the reds which has ensured easy drinking in their youth, with careful cellaring also reaping rewards. The highlight for 2021 was the overall quality, a genuine 10/10 season.
