Moss Wood Wilyabrup Cabernet Sauvignon 1996
Opulent, heady aromas of crushed mulberries, blackberries, cranberries and plums, with a hint of spice and sweet cedar/vanilla oak. Luxuriantly ripe and unctuously smooth, it slowly unfolds layers of deep but vibrant dark fruit flavours perfectly entwined with sweet new oak influences and firm, but creamy tannins. Built for the long term.

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.
