Vin et le chocolat

Some of our favorite red wines at a great price point, include Ghost Pine Merlot (US) , Bolla Valpolicella (Italy) and our new favorite...

We were at the liquor store and decided to spice things up when this bottle caught my eye. I picked it up and was intrigued by the lable on the back. As I am reading the label outloud to Aimee, naturally, this friendly old man comes up and grabs a bottle and starts loading it into his eco-friendly bag... then two... then three.. then four.. Curiously, Aimee asks the man, is this good wine?! He says "this is the best wine in the store, you can't go wrong," and slinks off. So of course we have to try it.



The wine is called Apothic Red its a masterfull blend of wines including Zinfandel, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Apperently among the midst of this there is a hint of mocha and vanilla. AHHH so many flavors!!

Naturally, wine goes well with extremely chocolately desserts. So I introduced Aimee to Michael Smiths Chocolate Molten Lava Cakes. SOOOOO GOOOD! And you can make them in under ten minutes, for your extreme cravings. I know from experience.

The combo of the two is Amazing!
