Vasse Felix Chardonnay

Vasse Felix Chardonnay - 2021

Item # 77014 750mL

Bright, delicate fruit, and a tightly-wound structure, this is a balanced, cool Chardonnay, reflecting the purity of style of Margaret River's cooler region. Savory elements knit together with pineapple and green apples, entwined with apricots, biscuits, and light almonds and cloves. A succulent wine, versatile for fish or fowl, in pretty sauces laced with fresh herbs. This Chardonnay matured in carefully-selected French oak (only a portion of it new) and underwent a battonage program that was tailored for each parcel over nine months of maturation, adding texture and depth.

From Champagne to Chablis, it's hard (not to mention unpleasant) to avoid this famous white variety. During a huge popularity surge beginning in the late 1980s, Chardonnay plantings have increased dramatically -- not only in California's wine country, with which the variety is nearly synonymous, but also in Burgundy (its original, Old World home) and just about everywhere else in the winemaking world. It is a flexible, eager-to-please grape, responding well to just about anything a winemaker...

Western Australia

The state of Western Australia has a uniquely moderate maritime climate. With fairly consistent year-round temperatures and moderate rainfall, the climate is well suited to the Bordeaux grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The soil here tends to be gravelly or gritty loam, offering excellent drainage, though poor water retention means that frequent irrigation may be required.
