Sutherlands Creek is a named vineyard site in Geelong — providing the ideal cool-climate terroir for this Côte-Rôtie-inspired Shiraz Viognier blend, with conditions that allow both Shiraz and Viognier to express their distinctive characters while creating extraordinary harmony in the final wine. The classic co-fermentation technique — perfected in France’s Northern Rhône — adds the aromatic lift and floral complexity of Viognier to the structured power of Shiraz, creating a wine of extraordinary elegance and distinctive character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeep ruby-red with violet highlights and excellent concentration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSoaring, perfumed and beautifully expressive with:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edark berries, blackberry and plum from the Shiraz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eapricot, white flowers and subtle spice from the Viognier co-fermentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe seamless dance of dark fruit, spice and floral lift that defines great Sutherlands Creek Shiraz Viognier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGeelong Shiraz Viognier of extraordinary aromatic elegance — the dark berry and plum character of premium Shiraz beautifully lifted by the apricot and white flower complexity of co-fermented Viognier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMedium to full-bodied with excellent balance and complexity.\u003cbr\u003eExpect layers of:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edark fruit, blackberry and plum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003efloral notes, spice and well-integrated tannins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe elegant character and cool-climate precision of great Geelong Shiraz Viognier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLong and satisfying with persistent dark fruit, floral complexity and elegant character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCritical Acclaim\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95pts – Halliday Wine Companion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95pts – The Wine Front\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWine Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVarieties:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shiraz with Viognier co-fermentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVineyard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sutherlands Creek (single-vineyard)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Geelong, VIC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mulline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ben Mullen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Côte-Rôtie-inspired Shiraz Viognier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eServing Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14–16°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCellaring:\u003c\/strong\u003e Drink now – 2034+ (10–15 years)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFood Pairings\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoast duck breast with cherry glaze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrilled lamb chops with rosemary and herbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlow-braised beef short ribs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWild mushroom risotto\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAged hard cheeses — aged cheddar or Comté\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy We Love It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a soaring, perfumed beauty — \u003cstrong\u003eMulline’s 2024 Sutherlands Creek Shiraz Viognier\u003c\/strong\u003e, dual 95 points from Halliday Wine Companion and The Wine Front, a seamless dance of dark fruit, spice and floral lift that ranks among Australia’s finest cool-climate reds.
