The 2022 Amber from Cullen Wines is a biodynamic marvel from Wilyabrup, Margaret River. Crafted by Vanya Cullen, daughter of founders Dr. Kevin and Diana Cullen, the estate is renowned for its commitment to sustainability, being Australia's first carbon-neutral winery. The 2022 vintage blends 59% Sauvignon Blanc and 41% Semillon from the Cullen and Mangan vineyards, harvested on auspicious lunar days to enhance the wine's vitality.

This amber-hued wine underwent short skin contact in amphorae and open fermenters, followed by five months in 20% new oak. The result is a complex bouquet of orange blossom, wild strawberry, almonds, and a touch of Negroni-like bitterness. On the palate, it offers zesty orange and pear notes, complemented by nutmeg, thyme, and a gentle salinity, delivering a structured and mineral-rich finish .
