  This is a first class wine. Can't quite believe I don't have a prior note for it. Lovely nose combining mature dried fruit - prune and date - but with the fresh mint and mature cassis, and then a layer of earthy dried leaves. On the palate, a certain creamy caffe latte character. Unctuous and delicious. Perfectly mature, drink or hold. Very sad this is my last bottle.

  Lovely dark, rich, deep crimsom.
  OMG, a perfume of real class, depth and richness. Top quality fruit, plum, asian spice,vanilla,herb, oak, cassis, pepper, some caramel and a little alcohol. A nose of delicious complexity.
  Palate; quite a reflection of the nose. Dark ripe fruit, with secondary hints emerging. Rich, mouth coating and harmonious. Tannins are soft and integrated. Real depth of flavor to the palate.
  Finish is long and more-ish and complex.
  This wine is waving a large sign... 'Open For Business!'.
  The kind of wine that reminds you, why you got into drinking wine in the first place.
  Will be a 'classic'.

  Deep ruby with slight fading pink edges. Spicy paprika aromas, and somewhat rosy. Tannins still showing, whilst somewhat rounded, and still with a great deal of alcohol heat, with flavours of red cherry, roses, twigs, leaf and grass, and a slight bit of tar and smoked meat. Finished pretty long with the cherry, grass and tar lingering. Good wine!

  Dinner at Windsor Arms. Quick double decant then drank over 2 hours. Cork enclosure. Fill is high and cork was in good condition. Dark purple, almost black. Full body. Dense and concentrated, lots of black fruit but quite fresh. Notes of cocoa and coffee. Still youthful, with years ahead of it. This bottle provides ample evidence of the aging capability of Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon.
