With Valentine’s Day approaching, it is customary to give chocolates in some form, and chocolate can be the perfect confectionery match to wine.

Fortunately, there are wine and chocolate pairings that will induce a pleasurable experience. We want to offer some suggestions for the very best wine and chocolate pairings possible.
Dark chocolate
In order to be considered a true dark chocolate, the confection must have a minimum of 35% cocoa solids. One must be careful because there are 99% dark chocolates that will easily dominate the palate. Dark chocolates will practically eliminate the effect of other bitter or non-sweet foods. Recommended Wines would be a dessert wine such as a late harvest Zinfandel, Port, Vin Santo, or Chinato.
White chocolate
Technically, white chocolate is not really a chocolate. This is because it does not contain any cocoa, just cocoa fat. However, as they say, “A rose by any other name…” In reality, white chocolate is one of the more versatile pairings with wine. Recommended wines would be any Rosé Port, Muscat, Moscato d’Asti, or Lambrusco.
Milk Chocolate
All the world revolves around the greatness of milk chocolate. The most expensive “milk chocolates have a high percentage of cream. The cream adds a little extra fat, making it a pairing with a significant number of wines. Recommended wines are Sherry, Rasteau, Aged Vintage Port, and Muscat
