A 90/10% blend of sauvignon blanc and semillon, barrel fermented and matured for 9 months in French barriques. The move away from the clear juice to slightly cloudy has moved this into big boy’s territory, full-bodied if you will, but none the worse for that. 14% alc, screw capx, drink to 2027

Moss Wood Ribbon Vale Elsa 2020
Pale colour. Fresh pineapple, stonefruit, honey aromas with herb garden, hint of grassy notes. Attractive minerally wine with fresh tropical fruit, peach, lemon glacé flavours, fine loose knit chalky textures and fresh long crisp acidity. A touch of aniseed at the finish. Delicious early drinking “classic white” style. 90% Sauvignon Blanc 10% Semillon.
