Man O' War

Man O' War Valhalla Chardonnay 2017 Waiheke Island

Very familiar bouquet of Chardonnay from MOW with an oak led beginning showing off baking spice and sweet French oak scents. Baked yellow stone fruit aromas with nectarine and peach then apple and baked pear. Dry, oaky, fruity, chunky, fresh and layered. A well made wine with flavours of stone fruits, oak and wood spices. Full-bodied with warming alcohol, balanced acid line, oak and fruit combinations. Plenty of length with a building complexity. Best from today and through 2025.
