Vasse Felix Margaret River Chardonnay 2022

Wine Advocate : 94 Points

(5/16/2024) The 2022 Chardonnay gives us a complete Chardonnay experience in the mouth. It is texturally plump, driven by fine salty acidity, saturated with powerful, concentrated fruit and shaped by gently grippy tannins. It's a really impressive wine, classy and composed too. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drink Date: 2024 - 2037.

Vinous - Angus Hughson : 94 Points

(5/2024) Robust and powerful, this 2022 Chardonnay offers up a dense core of aromas with rock melon and peach handsomely tripped with high-quality French oak. Mouthfilling and creamy, the decadent levels of flavor are well controlled by a fine line of acidity before delivering a lengthy yet nuanced finish. This is an excellent but earlier drinking vintage of this Margaret River staple. Drinking Window: 2024 - 2030.

Wine Enthusiast : 95 Points

(7/1/2024) Fleshy melon and citrus fruit are at the fore on this medium gold-hued Chard from a warm vintage in Margaret River and underpinned by chalk dust, ground ginger, and toast aromas. It's fruity, but it never feels overblown. A subtle creaminess on the palate is buoyed by tangy acidity. There's lovely intensity and a pulse of flavor to the finish. A classy wine for drinking now–2030.
