{"product_id":"2025-mulline-modewarre-pinot-noir","title":"2025 Mulline Modewarre Pinot Noir","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Modewarre vineyard is the coldest site in the Mulline stable, sitting on a unique geological mix of sandy loam and limestone marl. Because of the heavy maritime influence and the slow ripening on the Surf Coast, Ben Mullen is able to push the winemaking a bit further here. He has gone for an assertive whole-bunch inclusion - between 60% and 80%, depending on this parcel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s light on its feet at just 12% alcohol, but it’s packed with detail. By fermenting four different Pinot clones separately, Mullen has built a layer of complexity that moves beyond simple fruit. The stems provide a structural grip and a spicy, forest-floor lift that works perfectly alongside the vineyard’s natural mineral streak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is arguably the most intellectual and savoury Pinot in the lineup. It’s not about primary sweetness; it's about the interplay of red berries, briny minerals, and fine-grained tannins. Polished by eight months in French oak, it remains a finely etched and expressive Pinot that highlights Ben's commitment to showcasing the huge diversity of Geelong's sub-regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96+ points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A concentrated mouthful with dense, chewy tannins that ensure this will just keep getting better over the next six to eight years.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Philip Rich (Halliday Wine Companion)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Mulline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43998020206635,"sku":"2025 Mulline Modewarre Pinot Noir","price":65.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2572\/9722\/files\/2024MullineModewarrePinotNoir.webp?v=1746677970","url":"https:\/\/www.differentdrop.com\/products\/2025-mulline-modewarre-pinot-noir","provider":"Different Drop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
