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. |
