Description

The 2016 Heytesbury Chardonnay is a pristine, focused example of the variety as grown in Margaret River. It seems more crystalline and pure, less opulent and showy than previous vintages, although I must confess a bit of ambivalence about that. Pineapple and citrus dominate the nose with just subtle oak shadings (although it's typically 50% or more new). It's medium-bodied in the mouth with a soft, custard-like richness and a silky texture that fades slowly away on the lemon-tinged finish. Wine Advocate 93 (2016)

Every Vasse Felix wine is crafted with individual attention and a focus on expressing the distinct regional characteristics of Margaret River varieties. The finest fruit is selected from specific vineyard sites and fermented in parcels with the greatest of care. All winemaking from vine to bottle is controlled within the estate, where every decision is made in reflection of the vintage and the journey of the individual barrique.The best performing varieties from Margaret River are Carbernet Sauvignon (and Carbernet blends), Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon blends, many of which are recognised amongst the most outstanding of their kind in Australia.
