Description
Sourced from the Strathmore Vineyard in Sutherlands Creek, this is Mulline’s warmer, more structured Pinot built from MV6 and Abel clones grown on granite-laced loams. It’s a site that lends the wine depth and drive, but there’s no shortage of finesse here either.
Ben Mullen plays the whole bunch card with restraint, just 20% in the final blend, allowing the fruit’s earthy spice and deep florals to shine. The wine is dark-fruited and grounded, with notes of black cherry, clove, and crushed herbs. The palate is savoury, detailed and quietly powerful, with tannins that are firm but well woven.
Oak is perfectly in check (30% new), giving just enough lift to frame the wine’s complexity without taking centre stage. It’s a confident, composed Pinot that balances structure and freshness with real class.
Another smart single-site release from Mulline: pure, poised, and expertly put together by one of Victoria's brightest rising talents.
96 points
"Elegant and restrained with aromas of red cherry, rose petals and spices such as Sichuan pepper and star anise together with a little new-oak pencil-shaving scents. The palate is similarly elegant and fine boned and I like the way this keeps building as it sits in the glass. The tannins are superfine and persistent. The most reticent, perhaps, of the five single-vineyard wines but a wine that will no doubt age superbly."

There is something special about the pinot noirs from this area and the Mulline captures the elements that make this a beautiful wine.Certainly the wine goes beyond a standard Australian pinot noir.The terroir creates that difference so we are heading towards burgundy.
A medium weight with delightful finish this wine is so enjoyable and drinkable.
