Chocolate Wine...seriously???

It's no secret that the Winos' love wine and chocolate (well at least two of us love chocolate, the older sister - not so much).  Anyway...wouldn't you know that some genius decided to put both them together, in a bottle!  That's right folks Chocolate Wine is the new sensation, well at least it's new to us.
 
I read an article quite awhile ago about chocolate wine in a local newspaper, but I hadn't seen it in stores (well I really hadn't been looking for it).  So a few weeks back we stumbled upon a bottle of Chocovine at our local market, of course we had to give it a try. The wine is described as "a French Cabernet subtly combined with a rich dark chocolate from Holland."  Rich and chocolaty it is indeed.

Region: Holland
Producer: Team Products (a division of Dekuyper)

Year: N/A 

Color: Milky brown

Aroma: Decadent Chocolate

Alcohol: 14%

This is a wine that's best served chilled.  You can see the richness in the initial pour - oh it's thick ya'll. Those decadent legs cling to the glass like nobody's business! The smell is sinfully delicious and when you take that first heavenly sip...OMG! 

 

Chocovine is versatile you can drink it alone as an after dinner drink/dessert or you can use it to make other chocolaty drink delights: 

We give Chocovine:

If you like diversity you should know there are three different flavors: original, raspberry, and espresso. For more information on Chocovine visit the website and check out their Facebook page.
