2019 Boekenhoutskloof The Chocolate Block Franschhoek

The nose is exceptionally perfumed with an abundance of complex red and dark berry fruit violets and intense aromas of white pepper. Dark brooding fruit follows through onto a structured opulent palate with notes of cardamom cumin cloves and black pepper. The midpalate is rich textured and balanced with integrated acidity cocoa powdery tannins and a definite cedarwood character derived from French oak. White pepper lingers on a smooth lifted finish.
