Tasting Notes
Dutschke Wines is a family-owned boutique producer of classic Barossa red wines and fortifieds
Oscar Semmler made a lifetime contribution to the success of the Barossa Valley’s wine industry, having held positions of Chairman with both the Barossa Co-Operative Winery and the Australian Wine and Brandy Association during the 1960 and 1970s.
Dutschke are proud to dedicate this, our best structured and most flavoursome Shiraz, to Oscar, a man held in high esteem for his enthusiasm, innovation and encouragement that he gave to others.
Oscar Semmler Shiraz displays mouth filling fruit flavours and fullness, with crisp acidity, tannin and oak support to age gracefully in bottle for many years.
