| IRONCLAD NAMED BEST NEW WORLD RED BY DECANTER'S STEVEN SPURRIER
Man O’ War’s flagship wine, Ironclad 2008, has been named best new-world red by Steve Spurrier in the latest issue of Decanter magazine (January 2010).
It comes just weeks after three Man O’ War wines from the same vintage took 90-plu ratings in Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate.
The 2008 vintage is being hailed as one of Waiheke’s best” says Duncan McTavish, Man O'War’s winemaker. “It’s really gratifying that our flagship blend, Ironclad has been recognized by one of the world’s great wine authorities”. Spurrier noted the Ironclad was an “arresting Bordeaux blend… Smoky from oak ageing with Magnificent berry fruits and leathery undertones.”
