2015 Cullen Mangan Merlot Malbec Petit Verdot
Wine Rating
 
89
A blend of Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot grown on the Mangan Vineyard, this wine sits somewhere near the entry level of the stellar Cullen lineup.

A youthful red to purple in the glass, an aromatic nose of plum and blackberry with more complex cigar box notes coming through. The palate is drying and lean and needs time to break award from the earthen, savoury red fruits.
