How well do merlot and chocolate covered fruit go with each other?
May 21st, 2010
I’m going to dip strawberries, pineapple, cherries, apples, bananas, and long pretzels. I’m also going make hushpuppies and turn are living room into an indoor picnic area.
A fruity merlot would be great – cabernet would be excellent as well – do not have the fruity with shiraz since it’s was too strong for the subtle flavors of the fruit!

I don’t care for merlot a lot, but Cabernet Sauvignon generally pairs quite well with chocolate.

A good cab would be a much better choice for chocolate covered fruit. In fact some wineries will serve cab with a chocolate tasting right along with it.

Wow! That sounds really good. I’m sure it’ll taste as wonderful as it sounds.
Can I come over? lol
