"So this is a wine that’s been sourced from further south at Karridale, a region that is far cooler than the Wilyabrup sub-region of Moss Wood. Outremont is French for “another way”, and that explains Moss Wood’s sourcing of pinot from another region. There’s a beautiful perfumed red fruit aroma, cherry, and subtle red fruits. The palate is vibrant with high energy, driving those intense red berry characters. Tannins are quite fine and slightly chalky. The oak is neatly integrated, and the fruit intensity builds and then gathers momentum through to a very long finish. This is quite an exciting development for Moss Wood."
Cellar: 10 years

Cellaring
The 2025 Autrement Pinot Noir is attractive in its youth, with bright red fruit, fine tannins and excellent balance giving the wine immediate appeal. At the same time, its fresh acidity and well-proportioned structure should allow it to develop gracefully in bottle.
Over the next five years we expect the primary cherry and strawberry characters to gradually give way to more complex savoury notes. Between seven and ten years of age, the wine should show the earthy, mushroom and forest floor characters typical of mature Pinot Noir while retaining the freshness and elegance that distinguish the 2025 vintage.
The start
Planted in 1969, Moss Wood is a founding estate of the Margaret River wine region. Clare and Keith Mugford have been tending the vineyard and making wine at Moss Wood since 1984 and 1979, respectively. Their exacting viticulture produces grapes of excellent quality, creating a stable of fine wines distinguished by their consistency and ability to age superbly.
