Cullen Mangan Vineyard East Block Red 2022 Margaret River - 6 Bottles

WINERY INFORMATION:

On the advice of eminent agronomist Dr. John Gladstones, Dr. Kevin and Diana Cullen planted a trial acre of vines at Wilyabrup, Margaret River in 1966. Commencing in 1971, 18 acres of vines were planted on their sheep and cattle farm, including their first Cabernet Sauvignon vines. Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Semillon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc were planted between 1976 and 1978. All Cullen Wines are grown on a certified Biodynamic, Carbon Neutral and naturally powered estate. Grapes are harvested by hand on fruit and flower days according to the astrological calendar. The wines have no additions of yeast, acid or malolactic culture, and are in this sense natural wines which express the place and land on which they are grown, the vintage and the people.

TASTING NOTES:

Vibrant deep purple. Rose and violet floral notes complement dark fruit and chocolate notes. Structured and expansive with blueberries, bitter chocolate and a hint of spice. Fantastic fine tannins carrying a very long finish. Seared Margaret River Venison with root vegetables, dark chocolate reduction.
