Vasse Felix Syrah 2024

96 POINTS

Ray Jordan

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.

You must treat this right, which means decanting it, then following up with a big glass to further enjoy the heady aromas and bold flavours. Violets and roses, pepper and baking spices, with a whorl of the darkest fruit infused with mint and dark chocolate. The palate is full bodied thanks to expansive tannins, yet is so refreshing thanks to the vibrancy of the acidity.
