New Vintage: 2020 The Chocolate Block
We welcome the latest vintage of this vibrant and ever popular wine into the warehouse at Caviste this week. The 2020 vintage is a blend of 73% Syrah, 11% Grenache from the bush-vines on Porseleinberg - the subtle superstar of the blend offering a perfumed brightness, 8% Cinsault, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon from Swartland, and 1% Viognier.
“The Chocolate Block 2020 relied vastly on our own fruit from Porseleinberg and Goldmine farms – this had an immense effect on the flavour and energy of this unique wine. Porseleinberg offers purity of fruit where Goldmine brings structure. The vineyards on these two stellar properties have become well-established and are beginning to show their potential.” – Marc Kent
