Cullen Diana Madeline Cab Sauv 2023

Vivino rating 4.3

The 2023 Diana Madeline is the culmination of over 50 years of dedication, effort and respect for the land. Hand-harvested over seven picks, starting in mid-March and culminating on a Moon opposite Saturn astral event in early April. Following this it matured for 14 months in 40% new French oak.

The final blend comprises 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc, 2% Merlot with the balance being small amounts of Malbec and Petit Verdot.

Profound wine of vigorous depth and harmonious concentration. Fine grained tannins that wrap around the palate with a juicy and unctuous structure of plums rich chocolate, cassis, and cherries unfolding glances of cedar and sandalwood sitting with grace and silk length at the back palate. A great example of finesse.
