Moss Wood Ribbon Vale Vineyard Semillon Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2008
Dusty, slightly cheesy and lacking great intensity, this apparently overworked and slightly bitter white blend offers some bright, forward honeydew melon-like flavour but lacks freshness and intensity down the palate, finishing with green, menthol-like notes.

Winery
Moss Wood
Moss Wood occupies a special place in Australian wine. One of the founding vineyards of the Margaret River region, it was the first to establish iconic status, where it was quickly joined by Cullen and Vasse Felix. After some years in which the winemaking and viticulture appear to have lost focus, there are indeed signs of a possible return to Moss Wood's historically expected form. The 2013 Amy's Cabernet Sauvignon has more polish and finesse than several preceding vintages, while the currently available whites from Bordeaux varieties are right on cue.
