MAN O’ WAR DREADNOUGHT SYRAH 2021

Winery notes (2021 Vintage)
"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. It is classically styled, a beautiful vintage reflected in a magnificent wine."

Rated Outstanding & 95/100 Cameron Douglas MS, November 2024
"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. Best drinking from day of purchase through 2032."

94/100 JamesSuckling.com (2021 Vintage)
"Complex aromas of dark berries, dried meat, sandalwood and cloves follow through to a full body with juicy fruit and polished tannins. Long and persistent, with complexity and layers. I like the fine velvet texture. Drink or hold. Screw cap."
