Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon, 1998

Product Details

Product Description

Producer tasting notes: "The vintage conditions have resulted in the 1998 Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon being reasonably typical. The colour is medium-to-deep brick red and condition is bright. The nose has lively fruit aromatics of redcurrant, mulberries and raspberries with hints of stewed apple and rhubarb, all neatly integrated with chocolaty, smoky oak aromatics. The palate is ripe and supple, with good weight and flesh. The myriad of red fruits apparent on the nose show through again, and so there are lively concentrated fruit flavours that give richness and length. There is power, a characteristically tight structure, and well-balanced acid and fine ripe tannins that give definition and length on the finish. Finally, the wine is rounded out by smoky/spicy oak flavours. Although the amount of rain that fell during harvest period made this the wettest year since 1989, it is better compared to the 1985 vintage which was also picked in two parts because of rain after the semillon harvest." - <i>Moss Wood Wines</i>
