TASTING_NOTES_HEADING_BLACK

The 2023 vintage was so warmly received by Chardonnay producers in Margaret River, and I would go further to postulate that 2023 was the season that extracted the very best from all producers, in all regions across this great state and via most varieties. Mild temperatures, little rain and a long season came together to produce wines of energy, balance and poise. And so here, this 2023 Kevin John Chardonnay is pinpoint precise, with layers of white flowers, stone fruit, white spice and fine, spooling acidity. This is a lovely wine, quiet and reflective and very long indeed. Patience, it demands. The vines were dry-farmed and biodynamically/organically grown using the Gingin/Wente clone planted from 1976 to 1988, yielding 1.7 tonnes per hectare. I can still taste this palate-staining wine a minute or two after my last sip. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Erin Larkin, The Wine Advocate

Producer

Cullen

The name is synonymous with the Margaret River region – founders John and Diana Cullen are considered wine pioneers of the region. Daughter Vanya, now chief winemaker, has continued the pioneering spirit by applying natural principles to the vineyard, kitchen garden and wine-making process. Cullen wines are grown on a certified biodynamic, carbon neutral and naturally powered estate. Grapes are harvested by hand on fruit and flower days according to the astrological calendar. The wines have no added yeast, acid or malolactic culture, and thus are a pure expression of terroir and vintage. One of the great names in Margaret River and Australian wine. Cullen makes one of Australia’s great cabernets and, in recent years, its chardonnays have been elevated to the top level. The totally uncompromising approach produces wines of remarkable consistently, that capture the fruit character and natural balance of the region.
