Moss Wood Ribbon Vale 2023 Merlot – Andrew Caillard, The Vintage Journal

Points: 93
Rating: Stars

Medium deep crimson. Fresh dark plum, redcurrant, cedar, black olive aromas and flavours with herb garden/ star anise notes. A core of sweet fruit with underlying cedar/ fine grainy tannins and hints of vanilla oak. Finishes grippy firm with some sappy notes. Very buoyant and expressive but probably best to drink in the medium term, Drink now – 2042 14% alc
