Vasse Felix · Filius Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
14.1% ABV
'Son of' the Vasse Felix Cabernet Sauvignon. It carries the structure, power and tannins of classic Cabernet in an earlier drinking, more forward style from fruit sourced from each of the Vasse Felix vineyards.
ACCLAIM
“Shimmering violet. Mineral-accented dark berry and cherry scents show very good clarity and complementary suggestions of tobacco and cedary oak. Silky and focused in the mouth, offering lively cassis and bitter cherry flavors that show firm mineral bite and floral lift. Finishes spicy, smoky and long, with fine-grained tannins adding shape and gentle grip."

"One sniff of this little beauty and you'll be transported to Margaret River's pristine shores, the Indian Ocean lapping at your feet and towering eucalyptus trees swaying above your head. Your nostrils will sense wild blueberry, strawberry, white-pepper spice, crushed violets, scrubby seaside bushes and dusty warm earth. The mouthfeel is medium in weight, tightly gripped by herbal tannins and a juicy fruity lift on the finish. This producer's more premium Cabs may be more polished, but Filius is just plain joyful to drink." (Editors' Choice)
