The Chocolate Block 1.5L

The nose is rich and intense, offering an abundance of black and blueberry fruit, ripe brambles, and notes of black olives, perfume, and dust. Whiffs of white pepper and coriander seed add to the complexity. On the palate, bright dark berries follow through onto a juicy, abundant palate with classic red liquorice and fresh cherry flavors. The wine is medium to full-bodied, with a broad, weighty mid-palate, yet the mouthfeel is smooth and gentle. Lively acidity and svelte, velvety tannins are balanced and add to the elegance, focus, and energy of the wine. Hints of cherry tobacco and exotic spice linger on a pure, dry finish.
