Water Wheel
Water Wheel is one of the worst-kept secrets in Australian wine Đ a small central Victorian producer whose very inexpensive wines often make others of considerably greater expense look rather modest by comparison. Its style is typically ripe, luscious and handsomely oaked, with a deep and generous length of palate flavour. While the 2012 wines are perhaps finer and more elegant than typical, the 2013 Shiraz is typically plush and packed with fruit.
