Notes
"Mulline is really humming along. The wines are as good or better every year, it seems.
This is silken and svelte and intricate and more. It’s a savoury wine but it’s also the kind of wine that the crowd will love, thanks to its musk-like notes, its softness, its fineness and its finesse. Sweet red and black cherries, woodsy spices, woodsmoke and peppercorns. The overwhelming impression, other than ripeness, texture and control, is of craft. It feels meticulous. Sexy, but meticulous. It’s a seriously beautiful wine."

Campbell Mattinson - The Wine Front
"A new single vineyard from the Barrabool Hills, planted in 1999. Co-fermented with 2% marsanne; 25% whole bunches and matured in puncheons (25% new). A deep, bright, crimson purple. A beautifully crafted Geelong syrah with its expressive bouquet of purple fruits, olive tapenade, pink peppercorns and bright florals. Just as good on the medium-bodied, supple yet focused and structured palate. Silky, long-chained tannins round out a complete and lovely wine."
