CULLEN WINES Merlot Cabernet, Margaret River 2024 Bottle
About this wine
Cullen’s Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot can be seen as an understudy to the flagship Diana Madeline. Commonly an 80-20 blend of the two varieties, it displays densely-flavoured ripe dark fruits complemented by equally ripe, fine-grained tannins. The grapes come from the Cullen and Mangan vineyards, both certified biodynamic, and are harvested by hand on fruit and flower days according to the astrological calendar. There are no additions of yeast, acid or malolactic culture. The wine is matured in French oak barrels (usually 30% new) for six months and can be consumed young or cellared for 10 years or more.

Cullen
In 1966 Diana and Dr Kevin Cullen planted a trial 0.4 ha vineyard on their sheep and cattle property at Willyabrup in the Margaret River. A new vineyard was planted in 1971 with further plantings made over the subsequent decades. Winemaker and environmentalist Vanya Cullen, a strong believer in biodynamic viticulture, has harnessed the rhythms of the cosmos, earth’s energy and vitality to "achieve greater individuality of site through working with nature rather than against it". Meticulous attention to vineyard management results in fruit of exceptional intensity, concentration, tannin ripeness and acid balance. The “quest for quality, integrity and sustainability” is also reflected in the carbon neutral and naturally powered winery where sound winemaking techniques and skills are married with empathy for vineyard character.
