Tasting Note

Deep brick red with ruby highlights and bright clarity, this wine opens with vibrant aromas of red currant, plum, blackberry, and cherry, layered with dark jubes, fruit leather, and subtle earthy notes of tar and black olive, complemented by hints of spicy, charred oak. The palate is immediately generous with bright black fruits, including blackberry, plum, and cherry, with a touch of licorice, all supported by a firm yet balanced structure. Lively acidity carries the fruit through to a finish of chalky tannins, dark chocolate, and soft, toasty oak, resulting in a harmonious and textured wine.

Product Notes

Moss Wood Ribbon Vale Merlot is a beautifully balanced wine that showcases the unique terroir of the Margaret River region in Western Australia. The nose is filled with aromas of ripe black cherries, plums, and hints of cedar and vanilla. On the palate, the wine is elegant and velvety, with flavors of blackberry, chocolate, and subtle spice. The tannins are smooth and well-integrated, providing a long, satisfying finish. This Merlot is a fantastic example of the quality that Moss Wood is known for, with a perfect combination of fruit, structure, and complexity. It pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses.
