96 Points - Ray Jordan
Vasse Felix is one of Margaret River's biggest names, regularly delivering benchmark expressions of the styles synonymous with this highly acclaimed region. Their Syrah is always a modern, elegant, cool-climate style crafted from premier parcels of southern Margaret River Syrah.
The 2024 Vasse Felix Syrah opens with vibrant lifted aromas of raspberry, turmeric, matcha tea, saffron, and nice savoury undertones. The palate is soft and medium-bodied with fine tannins and an elegant, light, dry finish. Flavours of subtle gamey meat, tarragon, and wet granite complete the profile. Another fantastic Margaret River Syrah from Vasse Felix that has enormous appeal.
"96 Points. One of the softest, smoothest, and most beautiful expressions of syrah yet from Vasse Felix. Shows cool climate influence, wild fermented with some whole bunch and carbonic maceration. Vibrant, lively red fruits, plush and supple with fine tannins. Balanced oak, luscious and controlled. A modern Margaret River syrah. Cellar: 10 years. $40"- Ray Jordan, rayjordanwine.com.au.
