Slightly bigger, more fruit-forward Shiraz here. As the name suggests there is a chocolate note.

Big beautiful currant and jam notes. Mild tannins, velvety on the palate, and smooth medium dry finish. Overtones of chocolate and tobacco.

This Shiraz has a really interesting combination of flavours. Dominant dark luscious cherries, dark chocolate, hints of liquorice, and balanced spicy oaky essence. Great value at $25 CAD.

Meaty nose. Biltong, lamb and jerky. Rich berry and hoisin sauce falvour. Very interesting and enjoyable wine.

Dark ruby robe. Medium nose of mulberries, cherries, chocolate and cigars. Robust flavour with tobacco, plumbs and wood with moderate tannins. Medium, savoury finish.

Great aromas of chocolate and hint of pepper. Nice ruby color with flavour of dark fruits. Well balance and great with grilled meat.
