2008 Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon

96 Points - James Halliday, Wine Companion

“Strong, healthy red-purple; a distinguished vintage for this Margaret River blue blood wine, medium-bodied but with innate complexity; fine savoury tannins run through the black fruits and cassis of the palate, putting structure in place so subtly you can barely notice it, nor the length of the palate. Special. (Drink by 2028)”

94 Points - Josh Raynolds, Vinous

“Vivid ruby. Intensely perfumed nose offers a heady bouquet of spicy cherry and cassis, with exotic floral and mineral notes adding complexity. Pliant dark berry and candied cherry flavors possess excellent depth and show a measured sweetness. Finishes with superb lift and cut, leaving floral and spice notes behind.”

92 Points - Gary Walsh, The Wine Front

“Resinous oak, beef stock, black fruit, chocolate and rum and raisin characters on a full bodied palate that's throbbing with power and weight. The quality of tannin is exemplary, ripe and minerally, as is the length. There's latent power here certainly. Like the 2001 vintage, time should be kind to it. (92+ pts)”
