1986 Cabernet Sauvignon
The reputation of Vasse Felix was founded to a large degree, on our elegant, understated Cabernet Sauvignons. Recognisably similar in style to the better Bordeaux blends, the Vasse Felix wine is the result of careful blending of only the finest quality fruit.
Tasting Notes
Ruby to brick red in colour, fruit and oak flavours have integrated well. Plummy, jammy, earthy, with berry flavours all describe this wine. Slow to open up, a little time in the glass will reward.
