2025 Pinot Gris

Pinot Gris with texture and freshness 

Sourced from the Modewarre Vineyard on Geelong’s Surf Coast, this is a thoughtful and textural expression of Pinot Gris. The wine brings together three separate ferments, including a portion fermented on skins for seven days before ageing in old oak. The remaining parcels were fermented in tank and old oak without skin contact, then blended after four months.

The skin-fermented component contributes subtle grip and savoury complexity, while tank fermentation preserves brightness and purity. With no malolactic fermentation, the finished wine remains fresh and energetic, balanced by gentle texture and weight through the palate.

Why we love it

Fresh and vibrant, with just enough skin contact to bring texture, grip and a delicious savoury edge.

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.
