NOTES
The Moss family began their Margaret River vineyard in 1984 with a lot of expertise on side. Senior Moss, Jeff, had been growing grapes his whole life and David Moss had worked at both Houghton and Moss Wood for a number of years in both the vineyards and wineries.
Peter Moss, engineer, made stainless steel tanks and winery equipment including whole wineries and boutique breweries. Jane Moss studied wine making and grape growing at Roseworthy Agricultural College, Australia's leading wine science university. David had concepts about wine styles, and, the vineyard was planted with these in mind. The original line-up was Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot blend, Chardonnay and the Semillon Sauvignon Blanc blend.
TASTING NOTES
Pale golden straw with green highlights; the nose displays fresh and aromatic with cut grass and herbal tones. Citrus, lifted cutgrass, and slightly earth and spicy characteristics envelope your palate leading to a full and tight finish with balanced flavours and good zesty finish.
REVIEWS
5 stars Winestate Magazine – March 2009
The latest wine to attract my attention is the 2008 Moss Brothers Semillon from Margaret River. I love the light-bodied palate and the fine fruit flavours. It is very soft and ever-so-drinkable Toni Paterson MW Wine Diva Wine of the Month June 2008
Silver Mount Barker Wine Show 2008
Has abundant flavours of herb, grass and citrus, almost moving into sauvignon blanc territory James Halliday
