BOEKENHOUTSKLOOF THE CHOCOLATE BLOCK 2022

AUSSERGEWÖHNLICH, LIMITIERT & POPULÄR

Winzer Marc Kent erzeugt als bekannter Syrah-Spezialist mit seinem Rotwein "The Chocolate Block" einen der  besten Weine Südafrikas. Ursprünglich kommt die Cuvée in französischer Art nach dem Vorbild der nördlichen Rhône. Jedoch bringt der Wein die typische, örtliche Fruchtigkeit und Fülle mit sich.

Allzu viele Flaschen sind aber von diesem herausragenden Wein nicht verfügbar. Denn Boekenhoutskloof gewinnt seinen Wein von limitierten Weinstauden diverser Weinberge, die stark ertragsreduziert bewirtschaftet werden. 

Ursprung des The Chocolate Blocks

Den Syrah bekommt das Weingut aus dem heißen und trockenen Malmesbury im Swartland, nördlich von Kapstadt. Die Rebsorte gehört zu den ältesten ihrer Art in Südafrika.

Der Cinsaut wiederum hat seinen Ursprung aus alten Bush Vines aus Wellington. Die Rebsorten Cabernet Sauvignon & Viognier erntet die Kellerei in Franschhoek selbst auf sehr schonende Art und Weise. 
Jede der Rebsorten liefert ihren Anteil zur speziellen Faszination des The Chocolate Block Weines.

Die Zusammensetzung dieses Weins wird von Jahrgang zu Jahrgang optimiert, um das Klima und die alten, charaktervollen Rebstöcke, die einen wesentlichen Teil des Charmes und der Persönlichkeit des Weins ausmachen, bestmöglich zu reflektieren.

The Chocolate Block-Geschmacksprofil

Dem Jahrgang 2020 ging eine sehr trockene Vegetationsperiode voraus, die zu einem rekordverdächtig niedrigen Ernteertrag führte. Dies resultierte in kleinere, konzentriertere Beeren. Diese Umstände waren ermutigend für die Herstellung von Weinen mit großer Komplexität. Im Swartland herrschten im Dezember 2020 und Januar 2020 moderate Temperaturen. Das Erntefenster für The Chocolate Block war ein Zeitraum von nur zwei Wochen. Den ersten Berichten zufolge ist 2022 ein weiterer guter Jahrgang für Syrah mit ausgeprägten Aromen von schwarzen Früchten und einer klassischen Nuance von schwarzen Oliven.

Die vorherrschende Sorte Syrah (71%) zeigt eine schöne Tintenfarbe im Glas. Die Grenache-Weinberge sind gut etabliert, und diese Sorte ist zweifellos der helle, duftende Star der Assemblage, die an einen alten Châteauneuf-du-Pape-ähnlichen Charme erinnert.

Die alte Rebsorte Cinsaut bleibt ein unangekündigtes Juwel, das den Wein mühelos zusammenhält und eine raffinierte Eleganz etabliert.

Cabernet Sauvignon ist mit nur acht Prozent Anteil essenziell, um dem Cuvée Struktur und Griffigkeit zu verleihen.

Ausbau: The Chocolate Block

Die Rebsorten Syrah und Cinsault reiften in einer Kombination aus 2.500 Liter großen Fässern aus französischer Eiche und Barrique Fässern. Der Grenache wurde in 600 Liter Fässern gereift. Cabernet Sauvignon ist die einzige Komponente der Cuvée, die in neuen Barriques aus französischer Eiche ausgebaut wurde. Die Reifezeit lag zwischen 13 und 16 Monaten, abhängig von der Komponente und der Weinbergsparzelle. 2414 Barrique Fässer wurden für den 2019er Jahrgang ausgewählt.

The Chocolate Block im Glas

Der "The Chocolate Block" präsentiert sich in einem tiefen Rubin-Rot mit violetten Reflexen und einem fast schwarzen granat-kernigen Geschmack. Der Wein zeigt Aromen roter Beeren, dunklen Frucht-Kompotts und Veilchen. Am Gaumen schmeckt der Wein nach roten und schwarzen Beeren. Der Abgang ist lang anhaltend, schmeckt sehr gut und erinnert an dunkle Nussschokolade.

Ein Muss für jeden Weinliebhaber!

Ok so I never write reviews but this book was so good I felt the need to write this. Firstly your introduced to Huntyr you see her closed off hard core badass than towards the end you see the most subtle change and growth it’s amazing and the enemies to friends to lovers was just perfect, AND THE TWIST AT THE END GOT ME GOOD! You see one spicy scene the whole book but it doesn’t even MATTER BECAUSE THE BOOK WAS THAT GOOD. I’ve read 85 books in 2023-2024 so far and I’m pround to say this is my all time favorite. I’m so excited to read more of Emily Blackwoods books, this was my first time reading one of hers and I’m glad I did because HOLY!! Well done Emily well done

Fast paced romantasy you will not want to put down!
Format: Kindle
4.25 stars! I LOVED this book with similar vibes to Hush Hush, Fourth Wing, and The Serpent and the Wings of Night! It was fast paced with easy world building and will keep you turning the pages late into the night because you will not want to put it down! Huntyr is a fierce bad@ss FMC trained to kill vampyres her entire life. She is sent on a mission to go to the academy and earn her spot into The Golden City. Upon arrival, she is forced to room with the delicious fallen angel, Wolf, who is the only one who knows about her assassin identity. The romance, the plot twists, the secrets revealed, the battles, and the tantalizing training scenes had me hooked! And that ending…. I’m holding my breath in need to know hell! Read if you love: 🪽 Fae, Vampyres, Fallen Angels 🪽 Academy setting with magical trials 🪽 Forced proximity and slow burn 🪽 Rivals to lovers 🪽 Hidden identities and secrets 🪽 Tend your wounds “𝘖𝘧 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘐 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘸𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘺𝘰𝘶.

Excellent Rivals to Lovers!!
Format: Kindle
The tension and banter between Huntyr and Wold was delectable. I absolutely love the fallen angel and all of his flaws. Huntyr is amazing too being a badass FMC with some major trauma. The world building was great and I enjoyed the training aspect of the story. The writing was immersive and was in the story the whole time. The ending had quite a twist that I hadn’t anticipated and made my jaw DROP. Excellent job! I also loved the narration. Laura is one of my fave narrators!

Fallen Angels, fae, vampires, oh my!
Format: Kindle
Rating: 4.5 | Spice: 2 (but a good slow-burn) • Main Characters: Huntyr and Wolf • I couldn’t wait to read this book; there was so much hype about it! And there was no doubt why. I fell in love with the characters and the plot itself. This book is mainly plot driven more than friction driven but it’s easy to follow along with. The characters are fun, easily understood. The main setting is at an academy where both the main characters are going through trials and building strength for the final test, The Transcendent. There are fantastic side characters as well. I loved the camaraderie between Huntyr and her friends. But we don’t like Lanson. 😆 We do have some plot twists that come into play throughout the book. Secrets and betrayal to be seen. I did adore Wolf and Huntyr’s relationship. It was a classic slow burn trope. They didn’t hit it off fast, but in time their feelings grew. I loved their banter, so sexy. Wolf is your next book boyfriend; Huntyr is your next vampire assassin independent bad-a*s female. Themes include loyalty, trust, self-discovery, a true slow burn romance. Side note: book ends on a angsty cliffhanger! • Emily, thank you for writing this awesome novel and I cannot wait to devour Book 2, Blood So Brutal! 😍 • Happy reading, my lovelies! xo

“My heart bows to you and you only, Huntress.”
Format: Kindle
3.5 🌟 This book popped up in my KU recommended reading suggestions and the synopsis sounded like what I was in the mood for. I'm so glad I took a chance on it. I went into this knowing absolutely nothing about it and ended up really liking it. I love when this happens. The main characters are likeable and I easily found myself rooting for them. There is a mystery element to each of their backstories that I enjoyed watching unfold and can't wait to get more of. Wolf, in particular, has me fixated. Love him. I found this to be an entertaining, addictive read with a plot that moves along at a good pace. It reads so easily I found myself very reluctant to put it down. Lots of twists and turns and the angst is there. A good set up for the next book to come, for sure. My issues with this book....the dialogue feels a bit juvenile at times and there is a repetitive over use of a particular word phrasing that I found myself giving the ole eye-roll to. There are, without a doubt, some pretty cliche moments that gave me a bit of the cringe. I think this could've certainly 100% benefited from more depth regarding the world building. Perhaps the world building was sacrificed to keep the pacing quick? Just a guess. Also, the lack of consistency of character for the FMC was really evident and so she feels quite illogical at times. Overall, this was a fun and enjoyable read that hit the spot well enough for me. That ending certainly has me impatiently pining for book 2!
