2014 Cullen Mangan Amber Semillon Sauvignon Blanc, Margaret River

A blend of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc coming from certified Biodynamic vineyards. The idea behind this wine is to make a white wine like a red. The grapes were left on skins and fermented partially before being pressed. The skin contact went from 2 days to 1 month depending on the grape/parcel. The fruit was processed in different vessels: open fermenters, closed tank as well as amphora. This explains some of the complexity and the many layers of this wine.

Very complex already with lemon, cumquat, orange blossom and hints of honey. This wine has a textured and concentrated palate with great length and persistence. Flavours of figs, dried pears, cream, orange and gentle saltiness on the finish.
Cellar up to 10 years. Fantastic as an aperitif or with Rosemary and salt crusted chicken.
