I've had the pleaseure of visiting Cullen's. ... While the Cullen's wines are doubtlessly top drawer, we actually found their cellar door extremely disappointing: nothing available for tasting, generally unhelpful. Now, perhaps we struck them at a bad moment, but it's tainted the brand for me.

Sorry to hear that. While a little while ago, the last two times I've visited Di and Vanya (respectively) were holding the fort and happy to talk with My main complaint was the lack of room.
If you're in .au (or similar) the winery has a mailing list which is well worth being on. There are often "experiemental" wines not widely available - eg a straight petit verdot.
For those not local Di Cullen, one of the original Margret river growers, has recently passed away.
