Located at the eastern end of Waiheke Island, in New Zealand’s Hauraki Gulf, Man O’ War is spread across 4500 acres of rugged coastal farmland. Almost 90 individual pockets of Man O’ War’s hillsides have been carefully selected and developed for wine growing, each chosen for the unique and exceptional qualities they bring to the wines.
Meticulous design ensures that the distinct soil profile and microclimate of each block is used to best advantage to match the specific terroir on offer, fusing classic Old World techniques with innovative New World ideas to present wines with a hallmark elegance, balance and texture.
World Wine – A blended red made of 39.1% Cabernet Franc, 30.1% Merlot, 18% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6.7% Malbec and 6.1 Petit Verdot and aged in 25% new oak barriques, the deep garnet-colored 2013 Ironclad offers up red and black currants on the nose, plus slight touches of Mediterranean herbs, pepper, underbrush and a whiff of pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, vibrant and framed by medium-firm, fine tannins, it gives nice concentration through the long finish with oak poking through just a bit. Drink it now to 2025+.
