Why You'll Love It
This is a more serious, precise kind of skin-contact white. Orange-blossom perfume, bitter citrus and herbal detail meet fine tannins and bright natural acidity. The combination is particularly good with spiced vegetables, rich fish or Mediterranean dishes.
About The Producer
Cullen is among Australia's most influential fine-wine estates, founded in Margaret River by Dr Kevin and Diana Cullen in 1971. Their daughter Vanya Cullen has led the winemaking since 1989 and helped make the estate a pioneer of certified biodynamic farming and carbon-positive wine production. The family vineyards in Wilyabrup are managed with extraordinary attention to soil life, biodiversity and the lunar calendar, producing wines with fine structure, energy and a strong sense of place. While Cullen is celebrated for Diana Madeline Cabernet and Kevin John Chardonnay, its skin-contact Amber shows the same curiosity and willingness to explore how the vineyard's fruit can express itself.
Winemaking Information
Cullen Amber combines Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon grown on the family's biodynamically farmed Wilyabrup vineyards in Margaret River. Hand-picked fruit is crushed into amphorae and open fermenters for short skin contact, taking on colour and gentle tannic structure before maturation with a small component in new oak. The wine is made without sacrificing natural acidity. A precise blend percentage and ABV for the 2022 release have not been separately verified against a 2022 technical sheet.
