2024 Mulline Sauvignon Blanc

Sourced from Curlewis on the Bellarine Peninsula and Sutherlands Creek in the Moorabool Valley, this regional blend captures two distinct sides of Geelong. Fermentation was split between tank and neutral French oak, with full solids adding texture, depth and savoury complexity.

Bright and aromatic, with vibrant citrus and orchard fruit carried by fresh acidity. Barrel fermentation builds weight and texture through the palate without introducing overt oak, while a subtle savoury quality brings shape and complexity to the finish. Expressive, refreshing and far removed from simple Sauvignon Blanc.

Why we love it

Vibrant and refreshing, with barrel fermentation and full solids bringing unexpected texture and depth.

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.
