Pairing Wine and Chocolate
Pairing wine with chocolate is a relatively recent trend, brought to the
forefront by the relative health benefits of each. The pairing is not, however, without controversy most likely because consumers and wine experts alike have struggled to find the right pairings that enhance both the wine and the chocolate.
Brix Extra Dark (70%)
Specifically formulated to pair with the deepest red wines, it has a very high cocoa content and can stand up to the massive tannins found in these wines. While the label suggests Barolo, Cabernet and Bordeaux, Extra Dark goes well with the heavier, peppery Zinfandels and Syrahs as well.
Brix Medium Dark Chocolate (60%)
While its cocoa content is high, it remains sedate enough to enhance the fruit forward wines it was designed to accompany making it the most versatile. Its suggested pairings are on the label but don't be fooled - it easily stretches upward to the lighter cabs and downward to the heavier pinots.
Brix Milk Chocolate
Chocolate designed for the lighter reds and dessert wines. The use of highest quality milk chocolate results in a taste like no other; both creamy and spicy.
About Us
Brix is the first line of chocolates specifically blended to
compliment wine. Based on the finest single origin chocolate from Ghana, Brix
masterfully combines the outspoken character of the single origin chocolate with the smoothness of the highest quality confectionary chocolate.
"It was important to find a healthful, yet complimentary product to replace
saturated fat laden cheeses when drinking wine, especially after dinner. A
carefully crafted dark chocolate fits the bill perfectly."
