You do not have to be Nostradamus to predict that 2012 Moss Wood (Grand Vin) was going to be a stormer. In fact you only had to come along to a Roadshow event last year because the 2012 Moss Wood Amy’s was being poured and it showed such class and charm that it telegraphed the calibre of this vintage to all who came under its spell. Now that its leader is among us we can see that the 2012 is an amazing standard for one of Australia’s more revered Cabernet Kings. Everything about this wine from tiny sub-region of Wilyabrup (the bull’s eye of Cabernet quality in MR) is restrained. The scent is pungent but not showy, the flavour is delivered soto vocce but resounding and the finish is like a massive electrical storm flashing and rumbling in the distance. This is one of the most stylish and complete wines ever released under this label. Score: - Matthew Jukes, - 01 November 2015 |

"The high quality vintage shines through this wine, illuminating its intricate multifaceted complexity; almost, but not quite, juicy cassis fruit is swathed in perfectly balanced French oak and gently ripe tannins. The only problem will be keeping your hands off it." 98 Points, James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion Score: 98 Albany Vintners, - 01 November 2015 |
