Chocolate Lover’s Wine
I reviewed Chocolate Shop a little before Christmas, and think it is just the thing for Valentine’s. Yes, The Chocolate Lover’s Wine makes the perfect match and will delight many on Valentine’s Day. This really is the ultimate treat for chocolate lovers, and will be an experience like no other.
A fine balance between a seductive rich dark chocolate and premium red wine delivers a splendid twist over regular wines of choice for this special occasion. With inviting aromas of black cherry and rich dark chocolate combined, these continue on the palate surrounded by hints of cocoa powder and soft vanilla.
Commenting on Chocolate Shop, Lewis Jones, Managing Director of D&D Wines International, said:
“Chocolate and red wine is a classic pairing, so our new chocolate infused red wine is a truly indulgent treat for chocolate lovers. We believe it will make a fantastic Valentine’s Day treat”.
As an alternative to serving at room temperature, try Chocolate Shop as a short drink over ice or as a refreshing long drink by adding to fresh orange juice.
Or if you’re cooking up a delicious meal to celebrate try our simple recipe for sumptuous Chocolate Shop Tiramisu for a truly seductive and indulgent experience.
