GrapesSemillonSauvignon Blanc
Vibrant fruit lifted by citrus nuances. Very complex already with lovely stone fruit nuances and toasty characteristics.
This blend contains a greater volume of Sauvignon Blanc than Semillon, which reflects the outstanding qualities of the fruit produced by the former variety on the Cullen Vineyard. Picked at optimal ripeness with harvest conditions quite similar to 2015 resulting in an elegant wine displaying beautiful fruit purity.
Tasting Notes for Cullen Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 375ml 2016 from the Winery
As usual, this blend contains a greater volume of Sauvignon Blanc than Semillon, which reflects the outstanding qualities of the fruit produced by the former variety on the Cullen Vineyard. We picked at optimal ripeness with harvest conditions quite similar to 2015 resulting in elegant wines and displaying beautiful fruit purity.
Complexity and completeness have been enhanced through maturing some wine in new oak.
Bouquet: Delightful combination of fresh cut grass, spicy and vanilla oak aromas supported by tropical notes
Cellar: Up to 15 years
Palate: Vibrant fruit lifted by citrus nuances. Very complex already, with lovely stone fruit nuances and toasty characteristics. Barrel fermentation is seamless and playing second role. A brilliant example of this classic blend

Vintage Notes
We were happy to have the 2016 harvest. It followed three vintages of tiny yields.
The vintage had average yields and the rain that fell in January 80mm, and then February 15mm, and March 10 mm, had no effect at all on the fruit quality. The resultant wines have a wonderful aromatic quality and elegance, particularly in Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc.
Great vintage for Chardonnay, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and in the reds Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Cullen Wines
Grown in the ancient soils of Wilyabrup, Cullen wine comes from the heart of the land rather than the mind of the winemaker. They are the only biodynamic and carbon positive winery in the region.
