Vasse Felix Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

This was the first red wine produced in Margaret River and has been made every year since 1972. A blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Malbec, 1% Petit Verdot and 1% Merlot it was matured in French Oak for 18 months (40% new, 60% 1-4year old).

Vivid crimson-purple; it would be hard to find a more elegant, yet razor-sharp expression of Margaret River cabernet. It has cassis nailed to its mast, the sails of bay leaf, perfectly integrated oak and fine-grained but insistent tannins. Lovely wine.
