"Oranges, negroni, wildstraw, almonds, mineral and orange blossom. Tightly structured with zinging, energetic, ripe tannins, the palate dances like a group of people experiencing great joy; exuberant orange, pear, nutmeg and thyme, travelling way down the palate showing great complexity, structure and minerality.
The Amber is our orange wine made from 59% sauvignon Blanc and 41% Semillon. It is a cross vineyard blend, both Mangan and Cullen, once again with only one flower day harvest, the rest being fruit day harvests.
The hand-picked fruit was crushed both to amphora and open fermenters with short skin contact time to pick up vitality and tannins from the skins. The wine was then matured in 20% new oak for 5 months before bottling.” - Cullen
"Amber by name, amber by colour. For those wanting to experience an "orange" wine (that is, a white wine which spends time on on its skins), here is the perfect place to start. Masterfully made by skilled hands, it has just the right amount of 'skins' character to not overpower the inherent quality of the fruit here. Enjoy the slippery texture, the subtle ginger-pepperiness, and all the fleshy peach, nutty character of this multi-dimensional wine. It's an excellent rendition, full of complexity, but held so neat by refreshing acidity." - Wine House
