Cullen Kevin John Chardonnay 2009

Margaret River, Western Australia, AustraliaA huge supporter of Margaret River wines, Kevin Cullen's impact on the region has continued to surge after his death in 1994. This is reflective of the biodynamic producer's concentrated, elegant, serious wines. Toast, broken stone, and wild herbs hint to the native yeast ferment in French barrique, while the seamless, concentrated and full bodied palate shows the pedigree of the grapes. Fine, crystalline lemon, fleshy white peach and ripe pear flow to the very lengthy finish, textured with persistent fine spices and alive with a shimmering acidity. Showing beautifully now, this will continue to impress for another 5+ years in the cellar, easy.Tasted: 22 December 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
