A pioneer of Margaret River wine, Cullen continues to produce some of the region's finest wines from their mature estate vineyards. Under the guidance of Chief Winemaker Vanya Cullen, all wines are grown on a certified biodynamic, organic, carbon neutral and naturally powered estate.
The Cullen Dancing In The Sun is a classic blend of Sauvignon Blanc (53%) and Semillon (28%) along with 14% Chenin, 4% Chardonnay and 1% Verdelho. Opening with burst of fresh ripe fruit; rock melon, pink lady apples and citrus blossom on the nose. On the palate tightly structured phenolics and acidity hold together fresh citrus and tropical fruit notes; lemon, pink grapefruit, lychee and apples. Elegant and fresh in style, with a lean and persistent finish.
"92 Points. As with all Cullens, we see the use of biodynamics in action, although we are told this is the ‘fun and joyful’ side. Who knew biodynamics had a fun and joyful style? This wine is part of quite an extensive array of Sauvignon Blanc Semillon blends offered by Cullens, this one with a dribble of Chenin Blanc and friends – 53% Sauvignon Blanc, 28% Semillon, 14% Chenin, 4% Chardonnay and 1% Verdelho. It hails from a trio of their vineyards. A pale lemon hue, this has quite an intense nose with herbals to the fore, along with florals, soursop, citrus and touches of lemon curd. Pleasingly powerful aromas. This is balanced and seamless, with the palate beautifully constructed, and a lingering, clean finish. This will excite even more in a year or two and then drink well for the following four years. These Savvy Sem wines from Cullens are anything but your simple, slurpable Savvys blends, and all the better for that."- Ken Gargett, Wine Pilot.
