Vasse Felix 'Filius' Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 Review
All kinds of good stuff going on here. This wine is affordable, under screw cap, and delicious. It’s on the herby side of Cabernet Sauvignon, with soft fruit and prominent peppery notes. It’s full bodied, but focused, and great for food. This is an awesome bottle to bring to a dinner party or outdoor BBQ.
