Our 97 Point GVB Red with 5 BE Cinnamon Cardamon Cayenne Dark Chocolates. The GVB Red 2015 is a rich concentrated blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, and offers a palate of dark berries and spice balanced with grape skins exposed to the South African sun and climate. The Cinnamon Cardamon Cayenne is a testament to Central America’s ‘drink of the Gods’ blending spices in dark chocolate to make hot chocolate, providing a warm and spicy flavor. Clean cardamon flavors are distilled by Fifth State in Bridgeport CT, and cayenne discretely highlights the dark chocolate notes. Together, the wine and chocolate create an explosion of spices, vanilla, butterscotch and dark berry flavors, creating a truly unforgettable experience.
A classic Bordeaux blend this wine shows a rich ruby color with an almost opaque center. Cassis, pencil lead, spice, and red berries abound on the nose. The delicate fruit, tannin structure, and fine acidity indicate a wine of balance and finesse reflective of the Vergelegen terroir.
