- TASTING NOTE: Aromas of juicy raspberry with tobacco, vanilla and savory satsuma plum and raisins. Remarkable structure with unctuous juicy red fruits lined with savory salty plums well-orchestrated tannins and expansive pomegranate with a polish mineral ironstone, the finish evoques flowers of rose and violets.
- ABOUT THE WINE: Hand harvested fruit was destemmed and fermented with indigenous yeasts with no additions or fining at bottling. It was fermented 33% Malbec, 23% Grenache, 22% Mourvedre, 17% Petit Verdot, 5% Merlot. Aged for 8 motnhs in old oak. This wine is all about the fruit and purity of expression. It is imminently drink-able as a young wine but also will age well under screw cap closure for at least 15 years. Cullen
- ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Cullen is a legendary, Margaret River producer. Diana and Kevin Cullen were THE Margaret River pioneers back in the late 60’s planting a trial acre of vines at Wilyabrup in 1966. The encouraging results of this led to the planting of 18 acres of vines in 1971, including their first Cabernet vines. Daughter Vanya Cullen, took over the winemaking in 1989. Cullen’s vineyards are biodynamically grown with Cullen becoming the first vineyard and winery in Australia to be certified carbon neutral, requiring the calculation of all of the carbon used and carbon dioxide emitted in the winery; the carbon is then offset by the planting of new trees. There is a restaurant onsite which overlooks the historic vineyard and in keeping with the biodynamic philosophies of the winery, 90% of the produce used in the kitchen is grown onsite in 5 separate biodynamic gardens. The wines have received many significant accolades and awards over the years with the Diana Madeline considered by many to be Australia’s greatest Bordeaux blend.
