Waiheke Island
2010
Warspite Bordeaux Blend
TASTING NOTES
The blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Malbec was inspired by the great vineyards of St Emillon in particular Chateau Cheval Blanc.
Our Warspite is a supremely concentrated lush fruitful wine with an abundance of red berry fruit, floral lift and a note of wild herb on the nose.
The palate is very supple and rich with a firm graphite like grip of tannins on the finish. Warspite 2010 will reward decanting in its youth and will also reward long patient cellaring with a wine of immense complexity, power and longevity.
WARSPITE
One of a new class of “fast” battleships when launched and blessed with a thrilling combination of elegance and power, Warspite is entirely sourced from our Ponui Island vineyards and emulates the graceful power of the Royal Navy’s “Grand Old Dame”.
