Vasse Felix winemaker Virginia Willcock is making Cabernet sexy again – and her “Filius” Cabernet Sauvignon 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 reeks class and elegance, not your standard blockbuster Aussie style. Medium bodied, delicious juicy fruit filled wine with silky tannins and a herby savoury characters. Time after time this one proves itself to be one seriously delicious Cabernet!

This is the latest 2023 vintage that’s 95% Cabernet, 4% Malbec and 1% Petit Verdot. The reviews are in…

94/100 (James Suckling)
“Abundant black-fruit aromas supported by spices, cedar, crushed stones and violets. The medium-bodied palate has a creamy texture and finely tuned, generous tannins with so much purity of fruit. Grown further away from the ocean with a more continental feel. Delicious and early-drinking yet serious.“

92/100 (Christina Pickard, Wine Enthusiast)
“An excellent intro to this famed Western Australian Cab style, this vintage is, compared to the previous two, on the richer, denser side. Supple dark berry fruit with salt-flecked herbs, seaweed savoriness and a dark chocolate underbelly are woven with powdery, chiseled tannins and tangy blackcurrant acidity.”

92/100 & Special Value Award (Jane Faulker, James Halliday’s Wine Companion)
“Highly appealing from the word go. All dark fruits and spice, savoury with a little mint and nori in the mix. It’s supple and giving across the mid-weighted palate, pliable tannins and a freshness throughout.”

Food match – think autumn and winter grub. Roast lamb with roast veggies. Delicious!
