The 2024 Mulline Sauvignon Blanc is a refined, cool-climate expression sourced from two exceptional Geelong vineyards, with fruit from the Bellarine Peninsula and Moorabool Valley combining to showcase both freshness and texture. Fermented in a combination of stainless steel and seasoned French oak, with extended lees contact and partial skin contact, the wine moves beyond a purely aromatic style to deliver impressive complexity and balance. The nose is vibrant and expressive, revealing aromas of white peach, mango and greengage plum layered with citrus pith, fresh herbs, gentle jalapeño spice and subtle grassy notes, creating a beautifully lifted and distinctive bouquet.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with bright natural acidity and a beautifully textured mouthfeel. Juicy tropical and stone fruit flavours are complemented by savoury lees complexity and a fine mineral edge, leading to a long, crisp finish with excellent precision and freshness. Richer and more layered than a classic Sauvignon Blanc, it retains remarkable energy while offering an elegant, food-friendly style that reflects the best of Geelong's cool-climate vineyards.
Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2024 Mulline Sauvignon Blanc is a beautifully textured and sophisticated Sauvignon Blanc that balances vibrant fruit with savoury complexity. Pair it with freshly shucked oysters, grilled prawns, goat's cheese, sushi, asparagus, or herb-roasted chicken. Enjoy now through 2028 while its freshness, texture and lively acidity are at their peak.
