Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 Margaret River Moss Wood

Moss Wood are true pioneers of the Australian wine industry, the founding estate of the Margaret River wine region and their wines are universally revered and acclaimed.

This very elegant and serious Cabernet Sauvignon is actually a blend of Cab Sauv, 3% Cabernet France and 7% Petit Verdot and has dark and red berry aromas of blueberry, blackberry and redcurrant plus some violets, cloves and musk - a sure indicator of the presence of Petit Verdot.

The complex background is all about Cabernet Sauvignon with lots of tar, dark chocolate, tobacco and even some cinnamon and toasty oak.

There is a concentration of features which make this a classic, low crop Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon.

A full bodied wine, there are generous blueberry and blackberry flavours as well as dark, chocolate, coffee and liquorice that fills the mid palate.

They sit over a structure of fresh acidity and concentrated tannin, making the wine bright, long and for Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon, quite taut.
