Cullen Kevin John Chardonnay 2013 Non-Vintage A fine mid purple

A fine mid purple

Te Mata invests heavily into research and development in the vineyards

A little exotic soukiness to the spice profile with hints of dried rose petals

Quite perfumed and pretty in terms of fruit expression in the mouth

Cullen Kevin John Chardonnay 2013 Non-Vintage A fine mid purpleHand picked on a biodynamic flower day; whole bunch pressed and wild fermented in French oak and an egg, with a completely spontaneous fermentation before maturation for 7 months in French oak (30% new). It has brightness and life from the natural acidity remaining after the mlf, the fruit flavours drawn from both citrus and stone fruit inputs. James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion
