Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Moss Wood, founded in 1969, is one of the pioneering estates of the Margaret River wine region, located in the renowned Wilyabrup sub-region of Western Australia. Clare and Keith Mugford have been the heart of Moss Wood since the 1980s, with Clare overseeing winemaking and Keith tending to the vineyard. Their commitment to exacting viticulture and non-invasive winemaking practices has resulted in a collection of wines consistently recognised for their quality, elegance, and remarkable aging potential. With a focus on producing wines that express the distinct characteristics of their vineyards, Moss Wood has built a reputation for creating world-class wines, particularly Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir, all of which showcase incredible depth, complexity, and longevity.

The philosophy at Moss Wood is centered on the belief that wine quality begins in the vineyard. Clare and Keith continuously reassess their viticultural techniques, embracing both current research and innovative practices to refine their approach. From soil conservation to trellising and pruning techniques, the duo’s work in the vineyard is ever-evolving to ensure the best fruit possible. Their philosophy also extends to the cellar, where winemaking is marked by precision and care, with minimal intervention, allowing the natural expression of each vintage to shine. This hands-on, science-driven approach has allowed Moss Wood to remain at the forefront of Australian winemaking, earning the estate its place among the "Exceptional" wineries in Langton's Classification.
