Man O'War Dreadnought Syrah 2020 6pack 14.32% 750ml

TASTING NOTE

Classic Dreadnought, smoky peat, earthy crushed rock overlaid with blueberry, dark berry, and dried herbs. The palate is athletic with a ripped middleweight physique, an artful display of power and control. The fruit is ripe, coating the core of tannin and acidity, which is supported by a sinew of stem inclusion further balanced by a highquality framework of oak. 2020 Dreadnought continues its run as a unique and unorthodox Syrah from an excellent vintage.

WINEMAKING

2020 was an excellent year for Syrah, dry during the months of harvest, ripe and low yielding. Our Dreadnought Syrah comes from steep hillside vineyards and is carefully hand-harvested before delivery to the winery. Each vineyard is fermented, pressed, and aged in oak separately and tasted from barrel throughout its life allowing the winemakers every opportunity to understand each site for a particular vintage. All ferments are wild and stay in vat for 30 days prior to pressing with the wines maturing for a minimum of 18 months prior to blending.
