Brothers Vineyard and
Winery
Moss
Brothers vineyard and winery lie in
the heart of the Margaret River wine
growing region - the Wilyabrup Valley.
This valley is considered by many to be
the jewel in the crown of the entire
region.
Established
in 1984 the vineyard and winery continue
to be owned and operated by the Moss
Family. A commitment to quality and
exceptional fruit has earned Moss Brothers
a reputation for producing some of
Margaret Rivers' finest wines.
Moss
Brothers were thrilled to be awarded
top in class at the recent Boutiques Wine
Awards event in Sydney for the Moss
Brothers 2007 Sauvignon Blanc. This same
wine has also achieved 4.5 stars in
Winestate magazine, a high silver at Cowra
Wine Show and a Silver at Cairns, all
after only being in the bottle for four
weeks!
The
Moss Brothers 2005 Single Vineyards
Chardonnay has achieved the very high mark
of 94/100 from James Halliday in his newly
released Australian Wine Companion 2008.
His comments on the wine were: "An elegant
wine, with very good balance and
integration of nectarine and white peach
fruit, with cashew/smoky oak. Excellent
line, length and finish. Drinking to
2013."
Sally
Gudgeon reviews the 2007 Semillon in the
Sunday Age and the Sydney Morning Herald
Magazines Aug 07 "This is an appealing
example of a Margaret River style, which
has a grassy/herbal pungency. In the
mouth, it's flavoursome and textured with
zesty acid and length. Try it with goat's
cheese."
Peter
Forrestal Qantas in-flight Magazine JANE
MOSS 2006 Semillon Sauvignon Blanc "This
is an exquisite example of the blend from
Margaret River - wonderfully fragrant,
bursting with direct and pristine pea and
green bean flavours. Gooseberry and
lychees notes dance on the edge. Fine with
delicate chicken salad".
Ray Jordan
Wines of WA 2007 JANE MOSS 2006 Semillon
Sauvignon Blanc "What a beautiful wine
this is. Lots of dried herbs and tropical
fruits below with some light herbaceous
grassiness. It's very intense and long on
the palate".
When the
Moss family began their Margaret
River vineyard project in 1984 they had a
lot of expertise on their side. Senior
Moss, Jeff, had been growing grapes his
whole life. David Moss had worked at both
Houghton and Moss Wood for a number of
years in both the vineyards and wineries.
Peter Moss made stainless steel tanks and
winery equipment including actual wineries
and boutique breweries. Jane Moss studied
wine making and grape growing at
Roseworthy Agricultural College,
Australia's leading wine science
university.
