Moss Wood Ribbon Vale 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon – Gary Walsh, The Wine Front

Points: 91
Rating: Stars

Ripe strawberry and redcurrant, mint, rose oil and cedar oak. Medium-bodied, quite sappy and tangy, but has energy in that way, some leather/olive savoury stuff, and a woody flavour on a finish of solid length. Feels like a wine that wants to soften and turn into a ‘claret’ style of modest charm.
