Vasse Felix Filius Chardonnay is a sophisticated Western Australian wine, reflecting a true sense of place.

This multi-layered chardonnay concludes with a lingering, elegant finish, which the connoisseurs often associate with orchard fruits. It is a brilliant representative of Vasse Felix’s winemaking expertise, showcasing a prefect balance between richness and finesse.

Tasting Notes

An open fragrant perfume reminiscent of apple pie, delicate spice and milk arrowroot biscuits. Perfectly ripe notes of lemon, peach and mango mingle with light pear and a hint of white pepper. A very comfortable mouthfeel with fleshy softness, fruit sweetness and full body tempered by a beautiful fresh acid crunch toward the finish. Almost a mango-like texture with a tangy twist, fused with slightly undercooked pie crust.
