Moss Wood 2022 Amy’s – Matthew Jukes

Rating: 5 Stars

Heaven!  I have yet to meet a more ardent fan of Moss Wood wines than yours truly, and this is another epic Aussie wine which is featured in my 100 Best Australian Wines Report 2025.

Silky, honed, blackberry-soaked and seamless, Amy’s is one of the most incredible Cabernets on earth, and while it embodies the hallowed turf of Margaret River, it also manages to wink at the Médoc and nudge Bolgheri in the ribs, too, such is the class and detail here.  I know the price looks too cheap for it to be a genuinely serious wine, but I can assure you that this is one of the finest value Cabs on planet Earth.

I have been singing about Amy’s for aeons as it represents a glimpse of the glory of the great Moss Wood Grand Vin while packaging a flavour that rewards immediately. There is no need to cellar this wine because it is match fit and ready to perform. Interestingly, this is one of the most structured Amy’s of late on account of the quality of the harvest, but even this doesn’t slow down your enjoyment. It means you must stop at nothing to buy some for your collection. Bright, open and feisty, this is a perfect

early-drinking Margaret River Cabernet with just that bit more grunt and depth of field than usual. Electric!
