STORY BEHIND THE WINE

Vasse Felix was founded in 1967 by Dr. Tom Cullity, becoming the first winery in Margaret River, Western Australia. Driven by a vision to produce fine wine in an unproven region, Cullity planted the first vines despite early setbacks. His perseverance paid off, with Vasse Felix becoming a pioneer of quality Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. Today, it's a globally respected estate, and central to Margaret River’s reputation for premium wine.
