CULLEN WINES Margaret River, Western Australia "Diana Cullen created the styles which are still made at Cullen today. She was a meticulous person with natural talent and style. For her, cleanliness was next to godliness and she had great success right from the start. In her first year of winemaking, Di won a trophy at the Perth Show for her wooded Sauvignon Blanc. She pioneered the use of quality oak in white wine and blended Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon at a time when only varietal Cabernet would sell. Vanya Cullen, daughter of Diana and Kevin, took over the senior winemaking responsibilities in 1989, and it has been her job, with the team at Cullen, to fine-tune the styles that Di created. A very important shift in this has been the closer liaison and communication between the vineyard and the winery. In this sense, they are making the wine in the vineyards and any refinements to the Cullen style now comes from the vineyard. The vineyard at Cullen Estate is organically farmed and un-irrigated and has "A" grade certification with the Biological Farmers Association, after three years in conversion. Its conversion to Biodynamic Certification should be in 2004. The Mangan and Ellens Ridge vineyards are also in conversion to organic viticulture." |
