Cullen 2014 Amber Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc (Margaret River)

Country: Australia / Amber
Variety: Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc Western Australia
Winery: Cullen / Margaret River

Most of this skin-fermented blend of 64% Semillon and 36% Sauvignon Blanc spent four months in new oak. The result is aromatically restrained, but full-bodied and a bit oily in texture. Hints of marmalade and white pepper appear on the palate, lingering through the long, dusty-with-tannins finish.
