Tasting Notes: This year’s Amber is a blend of 60% sauvignon blanc and 40% semillon. 100% of the fruit was hand harvested from our certified biodynamic, carbon positive vines planted in 1976 in the Cullen Vineyard. This wine is made like a red wine, from white wine grapes. Harvested across two days with the first pick occurring under a Moon opposite Saturn flower day, and a second capturing the full Moon fruit day in late February, 2021. The wine had an average of 10 days on skins in amphorae, open fermenter, and some fermentation time in a concrete egg. It spent 5 months in older oak.

Deep gold colour. Bouquet of orange blossom, negroni, mint, thyme. The tightly wound structure of sauvignon blanc and semillon tannins spread the fruit out to the back of the palate, with crisp natural acidity. Orange blossom flutters in the mouth as a gorgeous tribute to the Moon opposite Saturn flower day harvest.

Varietal: Blend of 60% sauvignon blanc and 40% semillon

Pairing: Fantastic as an aperitif or with Manchego cheese and a touch of Cullen Honey.
