Event Description
Chocolate and Wine: A Match Made in Heaven!
Wine and chocolate are two of life’s great pleasures — but finding the perfect pairing is all about balance. From rich fortified wines and luscious sweet wines to elegant reds, discover how different styles of wine can transform the flavours of chocolate.
This indulgent tasting will take you on a journey through some classic and more surprising combinations. Explore smooth red wines or LBV Port with dark chocolate and the rich, raisined sweetness of Pedro Ximénez or Rutherglen Muscat with nutty and fruity chocolate.
We’ll also uncover some unexpected pairings, showing how wines such as Banyuls, Tawny Port and other dessert wines can bring out the best in everything from dark truffles to praline and milk chocolate treats.
Join us for a decadent evening of discovery as we taste a selection of six carefully chosen wines alongside delicious chocolate pairings. Learn the secrets of matching sweetness, intensity and flavour — and find your perfect wine and chocolate combination.
