Idée Fixe Premier Brut Blanc de Blancs, Margaret River 2020 – 95 pts

Although Vasse Felix had made traditional-method sparkling since the mid-1980s, the 2019 vintage that made it into the 2022 100 Best report was my staggeringly exciting introduction to this wine. And it took no more than a nanosecond to realise that this 2020 is another exquisite wine. It reminds me of some of my favourite Côte des Blancs classics with brittle, long, gleamingly fresh Chardonnay and discreet moments of tenderness.
