The Story

This wine was made entirely from grapes produced on the Cullen family vineyards and is the second label to the Diane Madeline in the Cullen Wines range. 10% of the total gross sales from this wine are donated to the Busselton Population Medical Research Foundation.

Warm conditions combined with rain from late spring thunderstorms enhanced the quality of fruit harvested in 2007. This naturally fermented wine is a blend of 67% Cabernet Sauvignon and 33% Merlot. It displays ripe, densely flavoured fruits complemented by fine-grained tannins. The wine was matured in French oak barrels for 20 months. Please enjoy this wine from now to 10 years.
