MAN O' WAR
For over three decades, Man O' War have challenged convention – pursuing rugged, steep hillside vticulture on the eastern edge of Waiheke Island.
The resulting patchwork of coastal vineyard sites follow the land’s natural contours, capturing distinct terroirs and producing a diverse range of varietals defined by both power and finesse.
Today you’ll find no less than 75 vineyards across the farm, as well as sheep, cattle, orchards, olive groves, restored native forests and beehives. Man O' War become well known for their Syrah, Chardonnay and Waiheke’s signature Bordeaux Blends. They also produce a distinctly different Sauvignon Blanc a seriously drinkable Pinot Gris and their (infamous) Rosé.
