Description
"The release of the 2021 vintage marks 50 years of Margaret River Cabernet. Made at Vasse Felix every year since 1972, each vintage of this historic Cabernet Sauvignon, Margaret River’s original, embodies a faithful pursuit of excellence, purity and wine artistry. Bright ruby plum with brick red tinges. An incredible multi-layered and complex aroma. Red berry fruits with hints of blackcurrant in the periphery envelop super savoury secondary perfumes of champignons and forest floor. The strong Wilyabrup influence is evident with traces of Peppy Tree, floral violets, subtle orange zest and dried oregano. A refreshing yet powerful palate. The refined and elegant, yet buoyant fruit entry is beautifully balanced by super fine long dry tannins. Complex and finessed." - Winemaker Notes
"Intense ruby colour. Ripe black fruit, cigar box and iron mineral aromas. Medium to full bodied, dark fruits meld seamlessly with tobacco and cedar wood notes. It flows long with fine tannins, there’s an effortless character that makes the wine very appealing and its long finish is precise and fine." - 93 Points, Stuart Knox, The Real Review
