Murray is our flagship wine, the Cabernet Sauvignon that started Felix Caspar in 2017. It's a single vineyard Margaret River blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon with 8% Petit Verdot and 6% Malbec, grown on gravel loam soils. The fruit was hand-picked, gently destemmed and wild fermented in open concrete fermenters, then spent 15 days on skins before basket pressing. It aged for 13 months in old French oak. This is a clean, premium, minimal intervention expression of classic Margaret River Cabernet. 13.9% alcohol.
Ruben Felix James, Phillip Caspar James
Brothers Ruben Felix and Phillip Caspar founded Felix Caspar Wines in Margaret River in 2017. Before that, Ruben honed his craft at some of the region's most respected producers, including Leeuwin Estate, Cape Mentelle and Flametree Wines. Together the brothers share a simple philosophy: grow exceptional fruit, then step back and let it shine with minimal intervention. Their focus is clean, premium boutique wine, made with traditional techniques including wild fermentation, basket pressing and ageing in old French oak. Their first vintage, a Cabernet Sauvignon, became the "Murray", and the range has since grown into a collection of characterful single-block wines, each named after someone close to the family.
