Moss Wood 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon – Huon Hooke, huonhooke.com

A big, rich, deeply flavoursome red, which is fully ripe and shows none of the leafy herbal notes of cabernet – but then, that is typical Moss Wood. It is full-bodied, dense and rich, with abundant supple tannins and marvellous balance. We tasted a screw-capped bottle alongside a cork-sealed bottle and there was little difference of real consequence. A superb wine, starting to mature but with years ahead of it.

Moss Wood 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon – Huon Hooke, huonhooke.com

Very deep, youthful colour presages an impressively young, concentrated, powerful cabernet which displays very ripe fruit and tremendous depth of flavour. The tannins are ample and soft, the finish long. There are cedar and roasting-pan complexities in the bouquet and appropriate signs of age development, but the wine has many years ahead of it. A superb and striking cabernet. (cork; 14.5% alc.) Published 25 April 2018.
