Charles & Charles Blend

Charles & Charles Blend pours a vibrant, deep garnet in the glass, with violet reflections that hint at its bold personality. On the nose, it’s rich and fruit-driven, showcasing expressive aromas of black cherry, dark plum, and cassis, wrapped in accents of mocha, clove, and a hint of smoked herbs. The palate is generous and full-bodied, delivering a velvety blend of ripe blackberry, cocoa, and vanilla, balanced by soft tannins and a subtle touch of oak. There’s a compelling tension between boldness and finesse, finishing long with layers of dark fruit and spice.

Parker Coonawarra Estate 95 Block

From the famed Terra Rossa soils of Coonawarra’s oldest vineyards, the ‘95 Block’ marries classic Cabernet depth with Petit Verdot’s spice and color. Poured, it gleams a deep garnet-red. The nose is immediately arresting ripe blackberry and blackcurrant entwine with graphite, French oak toast, and a hint of fresh mint. On the palate, layers of dark plum, bittersweet chocolate, and brambly berries glide over velvety tannins, while subtle violet and clove notes emerge mid-palate. The finish is long and sculpted, carrying rich fruit concentration and a fine mineral seam that speaks of place. A wine that demands attention and rewards the glass, perfect for elevated by-the-glass programs or pairing with wagyu, game, and aged blue cheese.
