Man O' War Vineyards
Waiheke Island Merlot Blend
Waiheke Island, Auckland, North Island, New Zealand
Great violet notes on the nose, delicate red fruit on the palate, finishes with some savory black olive brine, graphite and green bell pepper. A little surprised with how well integrated the alcohol is at 14.6%. Silky tannins make it an easy drinker.
Pretty much just an accessible fuller right bank Bordeaux style that isn't so over powering that a glass doesn't go down well on its own. I drank this while playing Settlers of Catan and you better believe I won.
