Moss Wood Wines Amy’s Cabernet Blend 2022 (750ml)

The Amy’s 2022 Cabernet blend is a Bordeaux blend of 68/20/7/5% cabernet sauvignon/merlot/malbec/petit verdot.

There is good volume and lift on the nose, with an array of aromas expected from this blend, with all varieties making their presence felt. Cabernet Sauvignon dominates, so its berries and violets are clear, while Petit Verdot brings its dark berry and jubes, Merlot supporting with black currant and Malbec providing red fruit and some white pepper spice. The complex notes typical of a Cabernet blend fill out the background with cedar and tobacco and despite being aged in exclusively old barrels some soft oak as well.

As expected from the nose, the red and dark fruits dominate and fill the mouth, giving the wine tremendous length and flavour. They sit over a firm but balanced structure, with acidity that is lifted, ensuring the fruit flavours are lively, full body gives good density and mouthfeel and, on the finish, the tannins provide an astringency that doesn’t disrupt, being smooth with no furry or bitter edges.
