Margaret River

Shiraz

Captures everything you could ask for from an approachable, easy-drinking shiraz. From a year when fleshy fruit and succulent palates were features. Earthy dark plum with a fine mineral thread. Oak and fruit balance perfectly, and the medium-bodied palate delivers long and pure. Love it.

Margaret River

Shiraz

Beautiful. Just beautiful. An elegant, medium-bodied shiraz that's come out of this very warm vintage, but come out of it really well. Loads of plummy berry and slightly cherry-like aromas, with a subtle earthy savouriness. The palate is medium-weight and bright as a button, delivering with energy and vibrancy. Simply joyous drinking over the next few years.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

A wine of acute precision and freshness from a relatively cool season that turned out damn fine for chardonnay. It all comes from the Gingin clone with the fruit wild yeast fermented after whole bunch pressing. Spent about nine months in oak with some lees stirring. Has a crunchy lemon saline character with a savoury element adding further complexity. Intense...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

Shines as brightly as any of the stars in Margaret River’s galaxy of great chardonnay. A supremely balanced and precise chardonnay with a succulent natural acidity despite having been through 100% malo. It’s one of the most sophisticated and complex of any Heytesbury to date. Deep mix of cashew and mealy grapefruit with a slightly savoury finish competing the palate....

Margaret River

Chardonnay

Yes, there is that distinctive acid line that defines Heytesbury, but this year more generous and opulent fruit fills the palate. From the Gingin clone, with 52% new French oak and wild yeast fermentation. Aromas strike with urgency: powerful notes of savoury honeycomb, stone fruit, and floral fragrance. The palate is textured with a lovely lightness of touch that carries...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

An extraordinary wine of tension, energy and power. It’s the result of the earliest vintage on record at Vasse Felix, with the fruit being picked on 17 January. It's a wine of power and generosity, yet the subtle secondary characters in here really do strike a complex note. It's made predominantly from the Gingin clone and shows generosity, but typically...

Margaret River

Sauvignon Blanc

A different, more complex take on sauvignon blanc. Wild yeast fermented in large French oak foudres and puncheons with full skins contact. Texturally pleasing and complex, with pale golden colour, nutty fruit, and a brioche-like character, yet still retaining crispness. Far beyond the typical variety expression.s

Margaret River

Chardonnay

I loved this wine when it was introduced a few years ago, and I'm warming to it once again. It's from a single site with the heritage clone chardonnay, so it is quite specific. The aroma is absolutely captivating, a maze of complexity, with savoury meringue, brioche and lightly lemony notes all swirling through an engaging aromatic intensity. The palate...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

This has been sourced from a single plot of Gingin chardonnay, and unlike both the Premier and the Heytesbury, gets no new oak. You get a sense of place almost from the first sniff. It’s a bit wild, but complex and intricate. A pure expression of the Gingin clone from a small Wallcliffe vineyard, benefiting from cool climate influence. Powerful...

Margaret River

Syrah

On a par with the 2021, which was a most impressive wine, but slightly firmer and bolder. All wild fermented with some whole bunch fermentation and a little carbonic maturation. It contributes to the syrah style winemaker Willcock is seeking. Bright medium bodied wine with lifted perfumes and spices showing delightful floral overtones. The palate retains its plush feel with...

Margaret River

Shiraz

This is as good as any syrah yet from Vasse Felix. It is thoroughly delicious and appealing from the first take on the nose through to the soft and plush palate delivered with medium body. Interesting techniques have captured the best from the fruit. It was wild yeast fermented, with a portion of whole bunches and a little carbonic maceration...

Margaret River

Shiraz

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.

Margaret River

Cabernet Sauvignon

Oh yeah. I expected this to be good and it has delivered. I see the power and concentration of the 2018 and the elegance of the 2019 with the restraint of the 2017. Beautiful, perfumed fruit with tremendous intensity. The palate is totally seamless with a velvety feel to it. So vibrant with an energy and drive that takes it...

Margaret River

Cabernet Sauvignon

This wine shows the benefit of an extra year in the bottle. Not the perfume of the 2018, but there is structure and poise here. Pronounced seaweed nori aroma with blackcurrant fruitiness and slightly toasty oak. This was a vintage that continues to reveal itself and should never be overlooked. It has such a seamless and slinky integrated palate that...

Margaret River

Cabernet Blend

Oh yeah. I expected this to be good and it has delivered. I see the power and concertation of 2018 and the elegance of 2019 with the restraint of 2017. Beautiful, perfumed fruit with tremendous intensity. The palate is seamless with a velvety feel to it. So vibrant with an energy and drive that takes it effortlessly to a very...

Margaret River

Cabernet Blend

This vintage was a challenge, yet Tom’s old vines have stood tall and delivered fruit for another exceptional statement of variety and region. The blend is 81% cabernet and 19% malbec with no petit verdot. All wild yeast and whole berry with 100% French oak for 16½ months, of which 68% was new. The aroma is somewhat muted, showing iodine...

Margaret River

Cabernet Blend

This is a superb wine. It’s elegant, balanced, and beautifully presented. Lifted cedary black fruits with perfumed violet and light red berry notes. The palate is beautifully integrated and woven with fine, silky chalky tannins and fine-grained oak in support. The red fruits emerge to add appeal on both the nose and the palate. A wine that is both pretty...

Margaret River

Cabernet Blend

It’s hard to imagine a more glorious expression of Margaret River red wine than this wonderful wine that draws inspiration from the man who planted those first vines in 1967 and gives it a modern expression based on the great 2023 vintage. It has seductive floral red-fruit notes on the nose, with a lift of violets and cedar. The palate...

Margaret River

Cabernet Franc

This is a slightly firmer style of cabernet franc, which you probably expect from this warmer season, and yet it carries the bright perfumes that are synonymous with this variety—slightly floral, a little violet, and a touch of plumminess. The palate is generous, but perhaps more in the medium-bodied zone, and it delivers with a degree of subtlety and finesse...

Margaret River

Cabernet Franc

The wines from 2025 had a certain delicacy about them, and this cabernet franc captures that. The nose shows a mix of dark fruits with a light floral lift. The palate has such an effortless, graceful feel, with bright red fruits supported by silky fine tannins and gentle use of oak. This is a cabernet franc with real character and...

Margaret River

Cabernet Sauvignon

A thoroughly beautiful and refined cabernet sauvignon from this excellent vintage. There's a small amount of bright malbec in there bringing a juicy red fruit impact to the middle palate. IT's one of the more elegant and stylish cabernets from Victory Point displaying impeccable balance of fruit oak and tannin. Bright blackcurrant fruit on the nose with a leafy oyster...

Margaret River

Cabernet Sauvignon

An elegantly crafted cabernet from this cooler vintage. On the nose aromas of bay leaf, blackcurrant and a seashell minerality reveal. The palate is medium to full bodied with excellent structure based on fine sinewy chalky tannins and fine-grained oak. Has a precise focus extending through to a long finish.

Margaret River

Cabernet Sauvignon

Yet another outstanding wine from this great vintage. Typical of the year, it's a wine of medium to full body but with incredible depth and intensity. Loads of leafy blackcurrant on the nose with slight olive tapenade nuances. The palate then harnesses it all with slightly chalky tannins and well-integrated oak. It has structure and poise with a precisely focused...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

This ever improving chardonnay comes from mature unirrigated vines. IT is a mix of Gingin and Dijon clones which combines power and elegance in once united presentation. It's whole bunch pressed to oak for 100% wild fermentation before 10 months in oak of which 38% was new. Has a creamy stone fruit middle palate with a trace of cashew and...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

The chardonnays of Victory Point continue to evolve and are now consistently among the best in Margaret River. This was from a season that was very hot early, about the time chardonnay was vintaged, but it has retained a precise acidity while also revealing a generous textured quality. Lifted lemon curd and vanilla bean notes on the nose with traces...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

These chardonnays from Victory Point over recent years have started to reach into the top echelon in Margaret River, and this is another cracking example. The aromas are intense, and the palate deeply concentrated, yet delivered with a fine, linear style. On the nose, distinctly lemon meringue, grapefruit, a trace of cashew, and some slightly dusty, chalky notes. The palate...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

The colour is brilliant gold. The nose has an extraordinary layered complexity, with traces of honeycomb, crème brûlée and a subtle struck match character. The palate is deeply intense with both power and finesse, and those complex characters initially evident on the nose start to emerge through this very long palate profile. The finish is dry and savoury, with precise...

Margaret River

Malbec

A variety that is making quite an impact these days as a stand-alone varietal. And it seems that this cooler Margaret River vintage has suited this variety rather well, bringing a degree of elegance and refinement into the mix. Perfumed red fruits with a subtle leafy influence and a trace of liqueur chocolate. The palate is seamlessly integrated and medium...

Margaret River

Red Blend

This blend of cabernet, malbec and petit verdot has been a consistent winner for Victory Point over the years, consistently delivering quality at a valued price. Needless to say, from this outstanding season, this has to be one of the best yet released. Captures all the essential fruit characters of these varieties, with the linear structure of cabernet, the flesh...

Margaret River

Pinot Noir

This slightly longer, cooler season in Margaret River turned out to be ideal for producing pinot noir, a variety not generally associated with this region, yet this one is quite superb. The aromas reveal slightly funky cherry, a little truffly mushroom character and brighter red fruits. The palate is light-bodied, but that beautiful combination of slightly sour cherry and a...

Margaret River

Petit Verdot

These vines planted in 1997 are now reaching a level of maturity to supply fruit of excellent balance and concentration. This is a medium to full bodied wine with a firm core of tannin supported by largely older oak and a smidgeon of new French. Dark chocolate and slightly minerally plummy bac fruit provides the palate base. It's a fruit...

Margaret River

Petit Verdot

If you wanted a vintage that suits petit verdot then the warm 2022 was right on the money. It started damn hot but finished somewhat milder, allowing the fruit to ripen beautifully after that initial burst. Deep colour is typical of the variety with a dark reddy black hue. Aromas of blackberry and dark liqueur chocolate with fleshy fruit Aromas...

Margaret River

Petit Verdot

The first thing you notice here is the deep, opaque, reddy-black colour which speaks very much of petit verdot. It's a variety that needs ideal conditions and a little warmth to ripen, and 2023 suited it perfectly. Intense aromas of blackberry and plum, and a palate which has the petit verdot firmness, but wrapped around is some plush flesh that...

Margaret River

Pinot Noir

The vintage was a bit of a balancing act for winemakers with some pesky rain, but for these later ripening varieties it worked out okay. It's a tidy medium bodied wine showing that pinot noir can work rather well in Margaret River. Has a spicy raspberry cherry aroma with a little vanilla bean. The decision not to use any new...

Margaret River

Pinot Noir

A slightly firmer style of pinot as you might expect from this vintage. Yet it retains a medium bodied elegance with a slightly savoury edge sitting comfortably with the ripe strawberry and cherry characters on the nose and palate. A thread of chalky tannins ensures its structural integrity while the oak is well managed. Nice savoury light earthy combination on...

Margaret River

Pinot Noir

Margaret River is often overlooked for the quality of its pinots, and in a year like 2022 where the fruit was intense, pinot is well suited. It's been expertly crafted, with aromas of sour cherry, light red berry, and an ever-so-faint truffly character. The palate has a nice grainy texture, with a lifted acidity that drives it through to a...

Margaret River

Rose

This is a rose that combines the bright freshness you want in this style with a degree of complexity and sophistication, which is a result of fermentation in oak and time on lees with regular stirring. All this builds texture and palate completeness. Lifted perfumed aromas with such a beautifully presented palate. Excellent.

Margaret River

Pinot Noir

There’s rose and there’s something like this. It comes from some quality pinot noir and is barrel fermented, which clearly introduces a degree of complexity and importantly, palate texture. Nice strawberry and cherry characters emerge on the nose, while the palate delivers to a long finish. Light bodied and thoroughly delicious with a slight savoury dried herb finish appealing.

Margaret River

Red Blend

The colour has a certain luminosity about it. It's a pale copper onion blush and most attractive. This is a combination of pinot noir, malbec and cabernet franc, varieties that certainly suit this style. It was barrel fermented, which introduces a degree of complexity and palate texture. It's a dry style with a slightly savoury character and beautiful refreshing acidity...

Margaret River

Cabernet Sauvignon

One of the prettiest and most elegant of any wine under this Mallee Root label. Excellent year contributed to it for sure, but some astute winemaking has helped. Hand plunging in small open fermenters has contributed to the bright highly scented aromas. Lovely red berry with a little blackcurrant richness with fine chalk tannins and clever subtle use of oak....
