Moss Wood Ribbon Vale Vineyard Semillon Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2011
Heavily worked, this smoky, rather oxidative and leesy, cheesy young white has a pungent, wild and funky bouquet of gooseberries and passionfruit with nutty, creamy undertones. It’s moderately long and profoundly textured, with a meaty expression of apple, melon and Packham pear flavours finishing with savoury, meaty influences, but without its customary freshness or focus.

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.
