Man O' War Ironclad Bordeaux Blend 2024 750ml

From a rare, small-yield vintage that delivered clarity, depth and longevity, Ironclad 2024 is what happens when everything locks into place.

Blend: Cabernet Franc 50%, Merlot 31%, Cabernet Sauvignon 7%, Petit Verdot 12%

Barrel: 30% New French Oak, 70% Seasoned

Tasting Notes:

The nose is deep and confident: blackcurrant, graphite, dark plum and cassis, layered with cedar, cigar box, bay leaf and a savoury undertow.

On the palate, the wine is seamless and commanding. Rich, dark fruit rolls in first; blackberry, damson plum, black cherry, framed by fine, maritime tannins and a cool, mineral spine. Oak adds structure, lending notes of spice, toasted cedar and dark chocolate, while the acidity keeps the wine lifted and precise.

This is not a blockbuster it’s a battleship; powerful, composed and built to travel a long way. A wine that will drink beautifully young but will truly shine a decade from now.

Alc: 14.7%
