CASE OF 12 BOTTLES. PLEASE ALLOW A 5 - 7 LEAD TIME OF THIS ITEM
 
The Chocolate Block 2021 marks the 20th vintage of this iconic wine- the usual suspects are present with this vintage compromising of majority Syrah, with the rest Grenache, Cinsault, Cabernet Sauvignon and a splash of Viognier to round out this exceptional bottle of South African red wine. The 2021 vintage, although somewhat riper, shows lower alcohol and good natural acidity, which should develop very well for years to come. Vegan-friendly, this release was bottled at 14.5% abv from 3349 hand-selected barriques.
 
The nose is dark and brooding and entices with its black fruit aromas and hints of pepper and spice. The blueberry and blackberry of the nose follow through onto a layered, full palate with flavours of dark plums and notes of dust, graphite and cocoa nib. The wine is focused and elegant, with fresh yet integrated acidity and fine-grained tannins, adding to exceptional structure. Black currant and milk chocolate linger on a silky finish.
