Moss Wood is one of Australia’s most iconic wine brands, and one of the most important in the Margaret River as one of the first commercial producers. I was excited to be contacted about some of their new releases, and even more excited to get the chance to taste some. Here are my impressions, let me know what you think in the comments below!
Wines tasted;
Moss Wood Chardonnay 2016 – RRP $65.00
Moss Wood Pinot Noire 2015 – RRP $60.00
Not the first time I’ve tasted Toppers Mountain wines on the channel, but the first time I’ve tasted some of their red wines. Toppers Mountain – located in the northern New South Wales region of New England – are known for their use of alternative varieties. They do however produce some more prominent international varieties, so here I can compare their approach to two grapes!
Wines tasted;
Toppers Mountain Tempranillo 2012 – RRP $32.00
Toppers Mountain Tempranillo 2013 – RRP $30.00
