Pale yellow and clear. Intense tropical notes on the nose. Creamy full palate with impecable balance. Wonderful length and all elements well intergrated together. Primary fruit is still standing up with a background of barrel age elements finished off with the softening acid of bottle age. A bloody beautiful Cullen Chardonnay.

Very pretty color. Not much nose - just a whiff of gunsmoke. Kind of citrusy and a nice tar bite, but pushed aside by matchstrike and a complete lack of harmony. Not special or enjoyable. No evidence here why people set Cullen above the rest.

Fantastic array of complex flavours. Marvellously fresh under its Stelvin seal. No need to drink now if you have some in your cellar.

Outstanding Margaret River Chardonnay: marvellously complex. Bravo Stelvin seal - as fresh as the day it was bottled. No sign of decline, whatsoever.
