Man O' War have set the quality benchmark for Waiheke wines higher with every vintage and their flagship syrah is mind-bogglingly good. Spectacular.

Cameron Douglas MS writes "Wood smoke and sweet spices, dark berries and black currant, earthy and new with fresh French oak sweet scents and a positive reductive complexity. Even better on the palate with precise flavours of raspberry and black currant , the tannins and acidity accentuate frame the core fruit with a youthful palate squeeze and unctuous salivating effect. Lengthy, youthful and delicious."
The winery writes "Dreadnought 2021 is a stunningly complex wine, loaded with red, black and blue berry fruits, lifted stem complexity, iodine, graphite, with florals unfolding and ever-evolving. The palate is focused with impressive weight, balanced with wonderful length, acidity and tannin all elevated with the vigour of the stem inclusion."
