Man O' War Merlot Malbec Cabernet Franc 2008
Waiheke Island, Auckland, North Island, New ZealandMade to represent a right bank Bordeaux style. Spicy, tobacco, peppery, coffee, cola, leather, cassis, cranberry, olive brine and thyme aromas. Round, dry, elegant, somewhat lean entry with fresh acidity. Smoky, rooty, cranberry, leather, resin, tobacco leaf, green bean and olive flavours with a bit of menthol and caraway on the finish. It's a bit green and leafy but elegant, will benefit from a few years in bottle.Tasted: 19 September 2010Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $29.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
