1995 Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon
96 points James Halliday
Medium to full purple-red; a smooth gently sweet-textured bouquet with that very special character of Moss Wood, a particular softness which is quite unique. The palate is in precisely the same mould, with soft, luscious mouthfilling blackcurrant and dark chocolate fruit flavours with perfectly integrated and balanced sweet oak. The tannins, likewise, are extraordinarily supple and fine.
95 points Jeremy Oliver
"Classically complex, perfumed bouquet of briary cassis and mulberries, dark olives and cedary oak, with a suggestion of Amarone-like dried plum fruit. Super-ripe and velvet smooth, it's powerful and massively concentrated, with flavours of black fruits and dark olives wrapped around a firm cut of slightly kernel-like tannins. Very balanced; nothing untoward sticking out."
