About this product
Limited availabilityDry, Medium Bodied style of Cabernet SauvignonIndependent wineryThe 2015 Cullen Vanya is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine is a tribute to the land and the vines it came from. Pure expression of a great year. No additions of yeast, acid, malolactic culture nor fining. The wines grown on these ancient soils are certified biodynamic, carbon neutral and powered naturally by solar power. The 2015 is characterised by lots of perfume, purity and great elegance. The wine spent 10 weeks in terracotta amphorae before being basket pressed direct to barrels. The fruit was sourced from 100% old vines on Cullen Vineyard. All of the wine was aged in oak for 5 months of which 66% were new.

Vintage 2015
The colour is not very dark but is a very bright and deep, full purple/red. The bouquet speaks of violets and mixed berries; oak is barely evident. The tannins are very fine and the wine is subtle, elegant and beautifully balanced. Wonderful cedary complexity. Elegance personified. It’s all about the purity of the fruit. A beautiful wine. (150 dozen made. Harvested on a full-moon fruit day, from the oldest vines on the Cullen vineyard. Fermented in wax-lined 300-litre terra cotta vessels. It spent 10 weeks on skins, and just 5 months in oak barrels, of which 2/3 were new.)
