Farmed and made according to biodynamic practices, and certified by Demeter or Biodyvin. Specifies year certified, but assumption is that biodynamic practices were followed in preceding years.

Critics Ratings

‘Deep, nuanced garnet. Intense and layered and rather creamily gorgeous on the nose. Edge of tarmacadam on the end. Delicate and magnificently subtle. Reminiscent of the 1989.’- Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5+/20 (Sept 2019)

‘This is the flagship red from Cullen's Wilyabrup vineyards in Margaret River. A classic blend of Cabernet and Merlot, aged for 18 months in wood, it has huge, ripe fruit, along with elegance. Flavors of chocolate, mulberry and spices come together with ripe tannins. This wine definitely needs aging—give it five years at least’ - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 92/100 (Apr 2005)
