This vintage is blended from grapes that are all grown in the Swartland, hence its wine of origin certification.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe nose is dense and brooding, yet opulent, with its compote of dark, ripe plums and blackberry and attractive whiffs of liquorice, violets, cocoa and mint. The black fruit and perfume of the nose follow through onto a rich, savoury palate with flavours of dark cherry, red currant, black olives and cured meat. Fine grained, svelte tannins are in perfect balance with the lemony acidity, lending complexity to the mid-palate. The wine is full-bodied with a rich, smooth mouthfeel. The finish is charry and long, with hints of maraschino cherry, pimento olives and sweet tobacco.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"James Nicholson Wine Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57156257546618,"sku":"18686","price":55.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0516\/7146\/6141\/files\/Boekenhoutskloof-Chocolate-Block_a354dbd1-1a05-4475-a7a2-984d2d251090.jpg?v=1786386894","url":"https:\/\/highburyvintners.co.uk\/products\/boekenhoutskloof-the-chocolate-block-franschhoek-2023-150cl","provider":"Highbury Vintners","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
