Moss Wood Ribbon Vale 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon – Fergal Gleeson, Great Wine Blog

Rating: Stars

Moss Wood Ribbon Vale Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 is another impressive release.

Depth and concentration are the words here. Bright red and black fruit flavours are meshed in a web of high quality tannins with a long finish.

Of all the wines in the Moss Wood stable the RV Cabernet demands time in the cellar. The tannins will loosen up in the next 3- 5 years but the cellaring potential is prodigious from there such is the quality and pedigree of this wine.

The terroir of the Ribbon Vale vineyard makes for a more savoury and structured Cabernet than Moss Wood Cabernet which is plusher on release.

Decades of winemaking ‘know how’ go into Moss Wood’s wines. This is quite a regal Cabernet.

Patience will be rewarded!
