About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Cabernet SauvignonMargaret River, AustraliaVasse Felix was planted by Dr Tom Cullity in 1967 which made Vasse Felix the first vineyard and winery to be established in the Margaret River region. Intense, yet elegantly structured, it is the oldest serving wine in the region. Careful fruit selection and 18 months maturation in French oak barriques gives balance and complexity to a wine with unique character and style.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

What a difference a year makes. The bouquet has a mix of blackberry, spicy, cedary aromas, the palate with cassis fruit at its core which has opened up its inherent sweetness; subtle oak, fine tannins and a long, gently spicy finish.
