Description
Ben Mullen just has a way with Pinot, and this 2025 release is a perfect example of why we’re such big fans. It’s a blend of fruit from across Geelong - the Moorabool Valley, Surf Coast, and Bellarine - and it basically captures the best of the whole region in one bottle.
The first thing you’ll notice is how bright and pretty it smells. It’s all wild strawberry and raspberry, but there’s this cool savory edge of white pepper and woodsmoke underneath. Ben used a bit of whole-bunch here, which gives it a nice "crunch" and that classic spicy hit we love.
In the mouth, it’s medium-bodied, really supple, and has this lovely silken feel. A nice lick of oak balances the lovely fruit, and it all opens up the longer you leave the bottle open.
You can definitely drink it now - maybe with a slight chill - but it’s got enough stuffing to get even better over the next year or two. A well-made entry-level Pinot that delivers serious value for money.

"With its aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry and some whole-bunch–derived pepper and spice, there's a lot going on in this well-put-together and attractively priced wine."
