Man O' War Estate Island Blend Waiheke Island Franc / Merlot / Malbec 2022

Tasting Notes

The Island Blend 2022 is brooding on the nose with blackberry, bramble, black tea and a touch of Provence herbs. The palate is medium bodied with red berry fruits, a touch of black olive and graphite on the finish with a light hint of oak and pepper spice on the finish. The 2022 Island Blend is a well structured wine and a wine to enjoy fresh in its youth as well as a wine worth ageing.

Aromas of blackberries and raspberries with tobacco, leather and the smell of the sea. Black currants and ripe fruit with savoury characters, ripe tannins and a long persistent finish.
