The Margaret River region, where Moss Wood is situated, is known for its ideal climate and terroir for grape growing. The maritime climate, with its cool ocean breezes and mild temperatures, is perfect for producing high-quality wines. Additionally, the region's gravelly soils provide excellent drainage, allowing the vines to develop deep root systems and produce concentrated, complex flavours.
Moss Wood is known for its commitment to producing wines of the highest quality. The winery follows sustainable and organic farming practices, using minimal intervention to let the grapes express their unique characteristics. The grapes are hand-picked and sorted, ensuring only the best fruit is used in their wines.
The winery's flagship wine, the Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon, is considered one of the best in the country. It is made from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc grapes, resulting in a complex and elegant wine with notes of blackcurrant, plum, and cedar. The Moss Wood Chardonnay is also highly regarded, with its vibrant acidity and flavours of citrus, stone fruit, and a hint of oak.
In addition to their flagship wines, Moss Wood also produces a range of other varietals, including Semillon, Pinot Noir, and Merlot. The winery also has a second label, Ribbon Vale, which produces more affordable wines while still maintaining the high quality and standards of Moss Wood.
Moss Wood has received numerous accolades and awards over the years, solidifying its reputation as one of Australia's top wine producers. The winery has been consistently recognized for its exceptional wines and was even named "Winery of the Year".
