About Moss Wood
In Margaret River's Wilyabrup, Moss Wood, acquired in 1969 by Dr. Bill and Sandra Pannell, planted their first vines, known as the "Old Block" in 1970. Keith Mugford's arrival in 1978 marked a pivotal moment, leading to the legendary cabernet sauvignon. This estate embodies Margaret River's winemaking finesse and heritage.
