Vasse Felix Filius Cabernet Merlot

Vasse Felix winemaker Virginia Willcock is making Cabernet sexy again – and their Vasse Felix Filius Cabernet Merlot is a prime example of why the world fell in love with this style of red from this neck of the woods.

We’re talking Margaret River in Western Australia. World renowned for producing kick arse Cabernet and Chardonnay, often benchmarked against top Bordeaux and Burgundy in France. Aussie’s leading wine critic James Halliday calls it “Australia’s most important wine region” while the world’s leading wine guru Robert Parker and his crew of critics have been raving about it in a recent article named “Western Australia: Killing it”

This is an unbelievably good wine at a price we can only offer once a year – and that’s no bull! This hot price can only be offered when we hook into an indent order that comes direct from the Vasse Felix winery – we commit to big volume, they sharpen their pencils on the price and ship it our way. Everyone’s a winner, happy days!

For the rest of the year you’ll be paying around $27-30 for this red so you can see why we honestly reckon you’d be a mug not to grab a case at this price.

This latest 2023 vintage was selected in top Aussie wine critic Ray Jordan’s “Top 100 Reds of 2025” list. He said “One of the best cabernet merlots released under this label yet. Loaded with plush fruit that flows seamlessly through a smoothly structured palate. Ripe, sweet fruit, delivered with medium intensity and showing just a trace of oyster shell minerality. Bright and bursting with energy.”
