Mulline Vintners Fumé Blanc is a sophisticated and contemporary expression of Sauvignon Blanc, crafted with a focus on complexity and texture.

The result is a wine that’s both refreshing and layered, perfect for those seeking a nuanced take on a classic varietal.

Mulline Vintners is a boutique Australian winery based in the Geelong region of Victoria, a cool-climate area that has gained acclaim for its refined and terroir-driven wines. Founded by winemaker Ben Mullen, the estate is rooted in a philosophy of meticulous vineyard management and minimal intervention in the cellar, allowing the character of the grapes and their environment to take centre stage. With a focus on small-batch production, Mulline Vintners combines traditional techniques with innovative approaches to produce wines of exceptional quality and distinct regional identity.

The vineyards for Mulline Fumé Blanc are located in the cool climate of Victoria, where a combination of maritime influences and diverse soils contributes to the wine’s vibrant acidity and complexity. The proximity to the Southern Ocean ensures a long, even growing season, allowing the Sauvignon Blanc grapes to develop bright, aromatic fruit while maintaining balance and freshness.

In crafting their Fumé Blanc, Mulline Vintners employs gentle pressing and partial fermentation in oak barrels, which lends the wine its signature smoky, creamy texture. Extended lees contact during the ageing process further enhances its mouthfeel and complexity. The restrained use of oak ensures that the wine retains its fresh fruit profile while gaining additional depth and nuance.

This white offers a pale straw colour with a hint of green. The nose is expressive yet refined, with aromas of citrus zest, white peach, and green apple interwoven with subtle notes of flint, smoky minerality, and a whisper of vanilla. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and beautifully balanced, with bright acidity underscoring flavours of grapefruit, lime, and nectarine. The subtle oak influence adds layers of creaminess and hints of toast, complementing the crisp fruit with a gentle richness. The finish is long and clean, leaving a lingering impression of citrus and wet stone.

Food pairing suggestion: Smoked veal.
