      A milestone Moss Wood—pure Wilyabrup Cabernet with presence, polish and 40-year promise.

      The 2022 Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon marks the 50th vintage of this benchmark Margaret River wine. It’s a vintage that brings all the signature hallmarks—powerful dark fruit, sculpted structure, and extraordinary length—while also revealing the lifted aromatics and finesse gifted by a cooler-than-usual ripening window. Sourced from dry-grown vines in the renowned Wilyabrup sub-region, this release includes 4% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot for added fragrance and tension.

      Fermented in small open vats, hand-plunged and matured in 16% new French oak for over two years, this wine is crafted with the same quiet precision that has defined Moss Wood since 1969. The result? A Cabernet with impeccable form and fine detail—bright mulberry and blackberry aromas layered with bay leaf, cigar box and warm spice. The palate flows with black cherry, currants and violet, framed by mouth-coating tannins and a wash of acidity that gives the wine energy and purpose.

      Still a baby, the 2022 demands patience. Cellar confidently for decades, or decant in youth to glimpse the depth that lies ahead.

      Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

      Still a baby of a wine, tightly bundled, but goodness: the presence is there. Toasty oak wraps the fruit, yet it’s well matched to the power of 2022... A true sum of its parts, juicy and structured, fluid and effortless.

      — – Cassandra Charlick, Decanter, 97 Points

      Exceptional purity to the 2022 Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon... Overall length and balance are exceptional.

      — – Angus Hughson, Wine Pilot, 95 Points

      Medium deep crimson... A classic Moss Wood vintage with lovely richness, definition and mineral length. Should last the distance.

      — – Andrew Caillard, The Vintage Journal, 97 Points

      Utterly seamless and seductive, there is a line of fine acidity running the full journey and the silkiest of tannins on the finish. This will easily sail through the next fifteen to twenty years.

      — – Ken Gargett, The Wine Pilot, 98 Points

      This has the refined elegance and prettiness that is the Moss Wood DNA... A wine of immense charm and appeal. I defy you to stop after the first sip.

      — – Ray Jordan, Wine Pilot, 98 Points

      Moss Wood predict full maturity at 25–40 years from now... If you haven’t tasted Moss Wood Cabernet, treat yourself, it really is as good as you’ve heard.

      — – Fergal Gleeson, Great Wine Blog

      Beautiful definition and purity on the nose... A wine that’s begging for decades in the cellar before rewarding in spades over the following 20+. Brilliant.

      — – The Cellar Post, 97 Points

      It’s a powerhouse Cabernet and classic Moss Wood in terms of intensity and regal carriage... the finish crackles, thunders and goes very long. Quite a wine.

      Moss Wood

      Since 1984, Clare and Keith Mugford have steered Moss Wood with a precision that few Australian estates can match. As both winemakers and viticulturists, the Mugfords have shaped the legacy of this founding Margaret River winery with an unwavering commitment to detail—from vineyard floor to bottle. Moss Wood's philosophy is simple but uncompromising: every decision, whether in the field or in the cellar, must enhance the final wine. It’s this ethos that underpins a portfolio known not only for its consistency and age-worthiness but also for its deep understanding of site, vintage, and vine.

      Moss Wood was among the first to believe in the potential of Margaret River, long before the region gained its global renown. Drawing inspiration from Bordeaux, the Mugfords refined a style uniquely suited to Wilyabrup’s coastal environment, instead of trying to copy Europe outright. It’s this balance of innovation and restraint that makes Moss Wood a benchmark—not just for the region, but for Australian wine more broadly.

      Tasting notes

      NOSE
      Fragrant and detailed

      Mulberry, blackberry, plum and violet lead into cigar box, bay leaf, vanilla and cedar.

      PALATE
      Structured and expressive

      Black cherry, redcurrant and blueberry with spice, earth, and a fine mineral edge.

      FINISH
      Long and poised

      Silky, persistent tannins and subtle oak drive a clean, powerful finish with age-worthy depth.
