"Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the blue blood classics of Australia. Regardless of the vintage conditions, they are a pleasure to drink at almost any stage of their development."  James Halliday

Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon is one of Australia's iconic wines anddeservedly fits in the Exceptional category of Langton's Classification of Australian Wine. Handcrafted by Keith & Clare Mugford and their team, the wine is the very definition of power and elegance. Moss Wood is located in the Wilyabrup sub-region in the heart of Margaret River and the  Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from the estate vineyard first planted in 1969 with the famed Houghton clone.

Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon 2003, Margaret River. Somehow, Moss Wood captures more fleshy smoothness and suppleness than other Margaret River makers. It’s chocolatey and lush in dark-fruit cabernet flavours, while the structure is deep, dense and sumptuous.

Critic Reviews

96 Points - Jeremy Oliver, Oliver's Wines

“Luxuriantly smooth, this deeply fragrant, firmly structured, plush and seamless wine marries deep, ripe fruit with superb oak and tannin. Its heady bouquet of cassis, dark plums, blueberries and plain chocolate overlies assertive cedar/vanilla oak, with nuances of forest floor. Steeped in sumptuous cassis and dark cherry-like flavour, the palate has a plumpness and richness of fruit tightly interwoven with cedar/dark chocolate oak and a powdery spine of drying tannin. There's a hint of confiture about the fruit, while it finishes very slightly spirity, with lingering nuances of dark olives.”

93 Points - Jamie Goode, The Wine Anorak

“This is normally 95% Cabernet with some Petit Verdot, Merlot and Cabernet Franc making up the blend. Smooth, dark, rich elegant nose of cassis with a touch of chocolate. Concentrated, pure fruit on the palate, which is elegantly rich, with the primary fruit complemented by spiciness and savoury structure. Serious.”
