Vasse Felix Tom Cullity 2022 - The Tenth Vintage Release

To celebrate a decade of Vasse Felix's flagship red, Tom Cullity, Vasse Felix Sommelier Evan Gill, will be hosting two exclusive events at Lamont’s Cottesloe.

Introducing the 2022 TOM CULLITY, a timeless tribute from the original vines that shaped Margaret River Cabernet.⁠
“Perhaps the most seamless and perfectly integrated of all the Toms.”
- Ray Jordan
⁠
Tom’s plots mark the origins of Cabernet Sauvignon in Margaret River, born of one man’s vision to see vines prosper in this remote, unproven corner of the world. Poised elegance and vivid perfumes were preserved, with a core of concentrated, expressive and striking flavour from the compact, intense grape berries. Tannins are exquisite, sleek and ever-present. ⁠
⁠
“It feels like yesterday we released the first TOM CULLITY, and here we are 10 years later, reflecting on our amazing development and evolution here at Vasse Felix. Yet the TOM CULLITY remains the same in its stature, meaning and beauty from the old vines, and tells the story of only the minor nuances of 10 beautiful seasons. The 2022 simply looks vibrant, energetic, powerful and delicious.”
- Chief Winemaker, Virginia Willcock.
⁠
This is the tenth release of TOM CULLITY, from 55-year-old vines. It is the pinnacle of Vasse Felix, a wine of rare provenance and enduring grace. TOM CULLITY captures the essence of Margaret River’s most historic terroir. More than a flagship, it embodies the soul of Vasse Felix.⁠
