About this wine
A Cult Classic from the Cape
The Chocolate Block by Boekenhoutskloof is one of South Africa's most celebrated reds — a masterful blend of Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault, Cabernet Sauvignon and Viognier. Rich, layered and complex, it bursts with dark cherry, blackberry and hints of mocha, all wrapped in supple tannins and a long, spicy finish.
As indulgent as its name suggests, but with serious structure and elegance beneath the surface. A perfect choice for roast lamb, venison or an evening that calls for something truly special.
