Mulline Portarlington Pinot Noir

Ben Mullen is a qualified winemaker and wine drinker. Having grown up just east of the Barossa Valley region in South Australia, he promptly decided that wine was much more fun than marketing and enrolled in a Bachelor of Viticulture and Oenology at Adelaide University. Ben has had a whirlwind career which has seen him making wine all over the globe. Of note, Ben has worked at Torbreck (Barossa Valley, South Australia), Yarra Yering (Yarra Valley, Victoria), Oakridge (Yarra Valley, Victoria), Domaine Dujac (Burgundy, France), Craggy Range (Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand) and, most recently, as winemaker at Clyde Park (Bannockburn, Geelong, Victoria). With this stellar background, it was a matter of time before he decided to spread his wings make a range of wines including this Pinot Noir. A bigger, broader, and darkly toned affair. Silky seductive structure with lovely freshness. Red and black berries rounded with fresh herb & forest floor. Serious yet approachable
