Vasse Felix
2019 Chardonnay awarded Cellar Press 2021 Best of Premium White
Thrilled to see the 2019 Chardonnay named the Best Of Premium White in Vintage Cellars 2021 Best of Awards.
The new release was selected from amongst some stellar competition.
"Vasse Felix enjoys the spoils of a unique environment and climate in Western Australia's Margaret River Region and Vasse Felix Chardonnay Premier is the vineyard's signature chardonnay drop, showing elegance, power and restraint."
"A mouth-watering sweet and salty sensation leads to a lovely, fresh acid finish."
The 2019 Chardonnay was also recently reviewed by Ray Jordan of The West Australian at 96 points;
"Another belter under this label. First thing, and I have said it often: It is way too cheap for a wine for this class. It’s a wonderful expression of this cool vintage, displaying more restraint and delicacy than the marvellous 2018. Wild yeast and some malolactic fermentation have contributed to the beautifully textured mouth feel. Minerally with a fine citrus edge, cuts through a palate of intensity and depth that explodes through to a very long finish. (Best drinking: Now to 2028)"
