Vasse Felix Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

Margaret River, Western Australia, AustraliaMargaret River’s first red wine is closing in on 50 vintages, dating back to 1972. 2016 is an 86/11/3 cabernet sauvignon/malbec/petit verdot blend, fermented with native yeast and aged in 44 percent new oak French oak for 19 months before bottling. The nose is an aromatic mix of cedar and red currants with a herbaceous twist. The palate is rich and smooth with more red fruit, cranberry and blackcurrant flecked with smoke-dried herbs and graphite. Surprisingly juicy and fun to drink. It may not age forever, but it will be fun drinking this for the next seven to ten years.Tasted: 01 April 2020Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
