2017 Boekenhoutskloof The Chocolate Block 0,75l
14,5%VOL, 113,33€/l
64% syrah, 14% grenache, 11% cinsaut, 10% cabernet sauvignon and 1% viognier
Lush chocolate tones
Explosion of red and black berry fruit,
Violets and intense aromas of white pepper on the nose
On the palate it is clear, sharply outlined, well textured and penetrating with deep, dark fruit aromas complemented by heavy spicy notes such as cardamom, cumin, cloves and black pepper
Structurally extremely intense, tart notes of powdery, dark chocolate in a combination of black fruit, a hint of smoky minerality and cedarwood hints and seductive oak spice
In the soft, long lingering finish, you can
still make out white pepper notes
Grippy acidity stored in French oak for 15 months
