Moss Wood's 2019 Ribbon Vale Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon looks remarkably similar to the 2017, with floral aromas, red berries and a crisp finish. It's medium-bodied and silky in texture, not a blockbuster, but refined, elegant and easy to drink.

Substantially riper and richer than other recent vintages, the 2018 Ribbon Vale Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon shows fewer of the delicate floral notes that characterize the 2017 or 2019, but it shows more weight and concentration. Its raspberry fruit is carried by a medium to full-bodied palate, finishing with firm tannins and substantial length.

The 2017 Ribbon Vale Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon includes 4% each Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The result is a silky, medium-bodied red with floral, violet-like aromas, raspberry and pomegranate notes and a soft, easy-drinking finish.

Hints of sage and bay leaf mark the nose of the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Ribbon Vale Vineyard. It's a medium-bodied, easily flowing Cabernet Sauvignon with cherry and cassis fruit and bits of mint mixed in on the palate. It finishes crisp and clean with a touch of mocha. Includes 5% Cabernet Franc and 2% Merlot.

Firm, crunchy tannins have a peppery, herbal side, with trim currant and cherry flavors. Herb notes gain momentum on the finish. Drink now through 2029. 1,500 cases made, 200 cases imported.??–MW??Region: Australia / Western Australia / Margaret River Select to Add
