Product Notes
Man O' War Ironclad is a captivating and robust red wine that takes its inspiration from the awe-inspiring historical battleships, known as ironclads. Hailing from the ruggedly beautiful Waiheke Island in New Zealand, this wine showcases the region's unique terroir. Crafted primarily from Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec, Ironclad offers a deep and enticing aroma of blackberries, plums, and spice, intertwined with hints of mocha and earthiness. On the palate, it exudes a rich and velvety texture, with flavors of dark fruits, cocoa, and cedar, smoothly balanced by fine-grained tannins. Man O' War Ironclad is a bold and unforgettable wine that pays homage to both history and the land it comes from.
Tasting Notes
The 'Bordeaux blend' Ironclad presents immediate aromatic complexity: black cherry, blackberry, cedar, pencil shavings, olive tapenade, wet slate, elderberry, and vibrant violet. Boisterous, juicy fruit and refined tannins offer a sumptuous palate, enjoyable now or cellaring-worthy. Finishes with appealing, intricate, and savoury notes. A wine of balance, structure, and allure.
