Moss Wood Ribbon Vale 2024 Chardonnay – Fergal Gleeson, Great Wine Blog
Moss Wood Ribbon Vale 2024 Chardonnay – Fergal Gleeson, Great Wine Blog
Rating: Stars
Moss Wood Ribbon Vale (RV) Chardonnay is one of 2 single vineyard Chardonnays from Wilyabrup released by the Domain.
The RV vineyard is higher altitude and cooler than Moss Wood Vineyard, typically resulting in a higher acid style.
2024 was a warm, dry vintage with grapes picked in mid February, 1 month earlier than average.
Grapes are handpicked and sorted, fermented in steel and oak. It’s a complex wine undergoing malolactic fermentation and ageing in 47% new French oak.
RV 2024 is a full-bodied Chardonnay with white and yellow peach flavors. It’s early days for wine of this quality but it’s balance is already clear – fruit, integrated with high quality oak and a great acid line driving everything along.
