Boekenhoutskloof 2019 The Chocolate Block
The Chocolate Block is cult South Wine from those clever chaps at Boekenhoutskloof. The 2019 is a blend of mostly Syrah with smaller parts of Grenache Noir, Cinsault, Cabernet Sauvignon and Viognier.
The nose is dark, intense and brooding with aromas of black cherries, cardamom, sweet tobacco, espresso and subtle whiffs of perfume. The dark fruit character of the nose follows through onto an exceptionally complex, juicy palate with gentle nuances of ripe plums, violets, black olives, cloves, and liquorice. The mid-palate is focused, lithe and elegant with very fine, cocoa powdery tannins. The wine is medium bodied, very balanced with an earthy, layered character, covering the entire spectrum of berry fruit - from tart red plums to rich blue and black berries. The finish is svelte, clean and dry, peppery and lingering, with hints of dried cranberry, tar, graphite and smoke.
