About the Wine
Pinot Gris sourced from the Modewarre vineyard on the Surf Coast. The wine is made from 3 differing fermentations. Half the blend sees fermentation on skins for 7 days then pressed to old oak and remains in these hogsheads for 4 months. The other two parcels are fermented in tank and old oak respectively (no skin contact). No malolactic. Then the component parts blended after 4 months. Bottled in July 2024.
About Mulline
Mulline Vintners is a collaboration between 2 Bens focused on producing premium wines from the Geelong Region, Victoria, Australia. Collectively, Ben Mullen + Ben Hine are Mulline Vintners. Ben Mullen is the Winemaker at Mulline Vintners.
Ben Mullen is a qualified winemaker and viticulturist. Ben grew up just east of the Barossa Valley region in South Australia. After graduating from secondary school, Ben enrolled in business and marketing at Uni. Concurrently, Ben began working in the wine industry at cellar doors in the Barossa. He promptly decided that wine was much more fun than marketing and enrolled in a Bachelor of Viticulture and Oenology at Adelaide University.
Since then, 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 Clyde Park (Bannockburn, Geelong, Victoria).
With this stellar background, it was a matter of time before Ben Mullen decided to spread his wings and make wine under his own label.
