White Wine: 2017 | Vasse Felix | Chardonnay

Pale straw with a green tinge. A subdued yet complex perfume of lemon blossom, lime and ginger, with delicate hints of brioche and pine needles. Savory overtones of bread crust, almond and spicy oak bring depth to the intriguing fragrance. The soft creamy texture, polished acidity and light, dry tannin finish combine to create an incredible body and mouthfeel. Lovely citrus flavors mingle with hints of crushed dry vine leaf and kaffir lime. Not overtly fruity in this cool vintage, the wine is delicate and textured, with pure balance.

      Reviews:

      • Decanter: Mint, marzipan and lemon fruit aromas. Concentrated palate, mellow but tangy with citrus fruit and creaminess and a pithy finish.
      • James Suckling: Complex and together white with cooked-apple, lemon-peel and cream aromas and flavors. Medium body, solid palate and a fresh and vivid finish. Always an excellent chardonnay.

      Producer Information

      Vasse Felix is a notable wine producer in the Margaret River region on Australia's west coast. Like most of the region's top estates, Vasse Felix is best known for its premium wines made in a Bordeaux blend style, and its oak-aged white wines made from Chardonnay. The Vasse Felix estate is divided into four vineyards: Home, Adams Road, Boodjidup and Karridale. The different terroirs and mesoclimates in these vineyards makes for a diverse range of grape characteristics, and site selection is essential. The cooler sites, like Karridale, are best for producing grapes with higher acidity, while warmer sites like Adams Road produce rich, ripe wines. Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay dominate the vineyards, but there are also plantings of Merlot, Petit Verdot, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. Vasse Felix's icon wines are the Tom Cullity and Heytesbury, which are a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant red wine and a varietal Chardonnay respectively. The two wines are sourced from the best parcels in the vineyards, and are both aged in French oak – the red for 18 months and the white for nine. Both have considerable ageability. Alongside Heytesbury, Vasse Felix produces a Filius range, an Estate range, and a Classic range. The estate was established in 1967 by Dr Thomas Cullity, and the first vintage was in 1971. This was not a great success for Vasse Felix – the fruit had been attacked by birds in the weeks leading up to harvest. A falcon was employed to scare the birds away, but this also proved unsuccessful as upon release, it promptly flew away.
