Kaesler ‘Stonehorse’ GSM 2017

14% abv

Vol- 75cl

The nose opens with an enticing bouquet of raspberry, wild strawberry, and red cherry, interwoven with hints of dried herbs, white pepper, and subtle game notes. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with a plush, velvety texture that coats the mouth. Flavors of ripe red and dark fruits are complemented by notes of cured meat, leather, and Mediterranean spices. The finish is long and satisfying, with fine-grained tannins and refreshing acidity that invites another glass.

Kaesler’s Stonehorse is a masterful expression of the classic Rhône-style blend, showcasing the synergy between three noble varieties: Grenache, Shiraz, and Mourvèdre. Named after the rocky, ancient soils that define their Barossa vineyards, this wine celebrates the art of blending, where each component contributes its unique character to create something greater than the sum of its parts.
The Grenache brings vibrant red fruit, perfume, and a silky elegance to the blend. Shiraz adds structure, depth, and spice, while Mourvèdre contributes earthy complexity, firm tannins, and remarkable aging potential. Together, they create a wine of real personality—one that captures the warmth and generosity of the Barossa while maintaining remarkable balance and drinkability.

Nestled in the heart of the Barossa Valley, Kaesler Wines has been crafting exceptional wines since 1893, when the Kaesler family first planted vines on their estate. Today, this historic winery stands as one of the Barossa's most respected producers, combining traditional winemaking values with modern techniques to create powerful, expressive wines that capture the essence of this renowned Australian wine region. The estate is blessed with some of the Barossa's most prized vineyard sites, including a remarkable collection of old vines—some dating back over a century. These ancient vines, with their gnarled trunks and deep root systems, produce fruit of extraordinary concentration and complexity, forming the backbone of Kaesler's flagship wines. The winery's commitment to preserving these viticultural treasures ensures that each bottle tells a story of heritage and terroir. Under the current ownership and winemaking team, Kaesler has garnered international acclaim for their bold, structured Shiraz—the variety for which the Barossa is justly famous. Their Old Bastard Shiraz and Old Vine Shiraz have become collector favorites, showcasing the region's ability to produce wines of immense depth, richness, and aging potential. Beyond Shiraz, Kaesler also produces outstanding Grenache, Semillon, and other varietals that highlight the diversity of the Barossa. Sustainability and respect for the land guide every decision at Kaesler, from vineyard management to winemaking. The result is a portfolio of wines that are authentic, compelling, and unmistakably Barossan—wines that honor the past while embracing the future of this iconic wine region.
