This Friday Night

When we introduced these wines last year 
they were a big hit. Very highly rated and direct from the Barossa Valley in Australia, we sold out of them too quickly. Rediscover them this Friday night they are perfect for your Valentine.

 2012 Chocolate Box Shiraz  


A very silky finish is a trademark of this very popular red. Earthy aromas of savory oak, dark cherry chocolate and stewed rhubarb with spice and cinnamon over a robust and generous body, leaving a persistent lingering silky finish.

 
2012 Chocolate Box Cabernet Sauvignon  


Deep, garnet red in colour with a chorus of sweet, sensual sandalwood, nectarine and roasted almond, over a refrain of turmeric, praline and coffee.

Textured, powdery tannins and dark chocolate beneath a pastiche of coffee, apricot and liquorice

Flowers Sonoma Coast Chardonnay  

92 Points - Wine Advocate
"The 2010 Chardonnay (Sonoma Coast), from a blend of six sites, is an unusual wine because of an exotic aromatic lift.

Apricots, peaches, lemon, mint and savory herbs wrap around the textured, broad-shouldered finish.
A vivid, striking wine, it is loaded with personality.


This is an uncommonly delicious and compelling Sonoma Coast Chardonnay with more than enough structure to drink nicely for a number of years."


Michele Chiarlo Nivole Moscato

Rated 91 Points

"Concentrated aromas of peach, apricot and pastry cream with sage hints. Mouthwatering apricot and mineral flavours. Weightless, silky texture. Clean, crisp."
