2020 Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon

90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc 7%, Petit Verdot

"Red and black fruit, something of an aniseed pastille thing here too, some floral notes, tobacco, cedar, and baking spice. It’s medium-bodied, kind of svelte and evenly weighted, just a little toasty oak, with some black olive and nori savoury elements. the tannin is quiet, and kind of latent, but swish it about in your mouth a bit, and their quality is revealed, especially on the long finish. I think this is going to be a beautiful wine with requisite bottle age, and is likely to rate (even) higher in time." - 95 Points (Gary Walsh, Wine Front) 

"This 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon is an effortless vintage from Moss Wood, although slightly unusual with 7% Petit Verdot (higher than usual) and 3% Cabernet Franc (lower). It’s an old fashioned claret style, reserved yet precise and focussed. It delivers blackcurrant, violets, red currant and old cedar aromas, French oak relaxed and assured with a mid-weight palate defined by its powerful core of impressive fruit. What I love most is the structure – very fine yet muscular tannins that are beautifully integrated and deliver a finish of extreme length. A classic in the making that is already drinking superbly, Petit Verdot structure adding additional tension that will see this star age extremely well". - 97 Points (Angus Hughson, Wine Pilot)
