The Chocolate Block
Color:.deep cherry red
Nose: . Boysenberry and dark cherry dominate an inviting nose, with gentle scents of violets and rose petals
and intriguing whiffs of exotic spice. The brambly black and red fruits of the nose follow through with
flavours of ripe plums, black currant, dried cranberries and blueberries.
Taste: Slight hints of cured meat and
espresso add complexity to the round, silky mid-palate. The mouth-coating texture of dark milk
chocolate is balanced with fine, powdery tannins and fresh yet integrated acidity. The wine is
medium-bodied, lithe, and elegant with licorice and subtle hints of crushed coriander and black
cardamom lingering on a smooth, soft finish.
Pairing: Steak with red wine reduction, BBQ
