5 Star Value Rating:      Rating: 92/100 Category: Red Wines Case Size: 12 bottles Year: 2010 Jack's Comments: The guys at Water Wheel really do do a great job on there wines and this wine is getting the accolades it deserves. The 2008 water Wheel Memsie Red has won a few trophies and though it is early to tell the 2010 is a great wine as well especailly at this price. It is the usual style we have learned to love from water wheel, a big rich bold wine with a deep red ruby colour. It has excellent dark berry flavours that are rich and ripe. It has hints of spice and you get a handful of the malbec liquorice flavours towards the end with a good tannin structure. This is well worth a try, you will be impressed!
Winemaker's Comments: The 2010 Water Wheel Memsie Homestead is a deep, vivid, violet red colour. Berry, blackcurrant and liquorice characters on the bouquet. The palate is full and rich with spice, berry and black pepper flavours. Memsie is well balanced, with a persistent finish complimented by fine tannins. Ready for immediate enjoyment, the ideal match to pasta, barbeques and game.
The 2010 Water Wheel Memsie Red has a whisper of eucalypt on the nose with blackcurrant, raspberry and spice aromas. The medium weight palate is spicy smooth, with a hint of vanilla bean on the finish. Food ideas? Lamb pasties & mildy spiced sausages!" -Age The Epicure, "The fresh rich raspberry scented nose is very appealing, and the firm, long palate is packed with flavour. Highly Recommended. Excellent Value!" Blend: 87% Shiraz, Malbec 7%, Cabernet Sauvignon 6% Region: Bendigo, Victoria

I came across the 2005 Water Wheel Memsie Shiraz, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon quite by accident. It arrived in a mixed dozen a few weeks ago and, quite apart from regular platitudes such as it having a heady, sweet perfume, an earthy dark ruby colour and the detection of a hint of wood and spices, it was the 'wow' factor that knocked me out. When I took it with me to share with my sister when I visited last week, she said, "Have you discovered Memsie, too?" Armed with an other bottle, we both went for lunch at another sister's home and, just like me, she said, "Wow!" when she had her first taste. What sensational value and an absolute 'must have' for drinkers of red wine. |
