Wine and Chocolate Tasting
Why do people get so passionate about wine and Chocolate?
Simple... The good ones are made with a passion that erupts on your taste buds. The good wines and fabulous chocolates are made by people - people with a passion for what they do.
RULE of THUMB for Wine & Chocolate Pairing: Good chocolate needs good red wine. The taste of the wine should be as strong as the taste of the chocolate. Strong chocolate needs robust tasting wine. Elegant chocolates can pair with lighter bodied wines. No dark or milk chocolate pairs with white wine or champagne.
