Dutschke Oscar Semmler Single Vineyard Shiraz 2018

The nose of the 2018 Shiraz Oscar Semmler is sensational. It’s bloody, earthy and concentrated, and it has a ferrous, flaky rust character there too. Awesome. In the mouth, the wine is exactly this; I love the old-school vibes that this is so classily exuding. This is really nicely handled, and the 2018 vintage is on display here, too. Ripe, red and fresh. So fresh. Drink date: 2022-2037. Score – 94+. (Erin Larkin, robertparker.com, Sept. 15, 2022)
