The estate is still family‑owned and now spans four carefully selected vineyard sites, with Cabernet at its core and strong expressions of Chardonnay, Shiraz, and Sauvignon Blanc–Semillon. Since 2006, Chief Winemaker Virginia Willcock has shaped the wines with a wild‑ferment, low‑intervention approach that has become influential across the region. Her Cabernets and Chardonnays are widely considered among Australia’s best. More than 50 years on, Vasse Felix continues to lead Margaret River’s evolution rather than relying on its pioneering past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vasse Felix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53452657361080,"sku":"SKU-110526030421","price":145.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4211\/3208\/files\/B2EFEB21-A733-48A3-905D-C24ADC7C244E.jpg?v=1778469649","url":"https:\/\/www.vauclusecellars.com.au\/products\/vasse-felix-heytesbury-chardonnay-2024","provider":"Vaucluse Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
