Mulline Vintners is a collaboration between 2 Bens. Collectively, Ben Mullen + Ben Hine are Mulline Vintners.

From a vineyard on the water in Port Arlington planted in '94. 20% new French barriques; 15% mlf. A bright green gold. Another restrained, complex and beautifully crafted chardonnay from Mulline in '25! Subtle aromas of stone fruits, fresh honey and a hint of matchstick precede the gentle, impeccably balanced and long palate. Drink now and over the next three to four years. Date: Feb 2026; Alcohol: 13%; Price: $65.00; Drink by: 2030; Rating: 96 Points & Special Value Star; James Halliday Wine Companion

Chardonnay from a 20+-year-old vineyard. The 2024 release was “an absolute belter” and so too this 2025. This is enormously good. Stonefruit, nougat, flint, grilled pears; all these flavours get a run, all combine seamlessly, all present with excellent intensity and all soar out through the finish.
