Wine and chocolate may not seem like they have a lot in common, but with the nuances and complexity dependant on where the grapes or beans have been grown, and the different processes used to transform them into the final product, there is a lot of similarity between the two.

This 2 hour course is just the thing to give you an in depth understanding of how to truly taste chocolate, and how to pair it with a wine to best enhance your flavour experience.

Come and join us for this informative session, where we pair a selection of chocolates with red, white and sparkling wines under the guidance of our expert master sommelier and pâtisserie chef who will demystify this topic for you.

You will learn about the growing regions and processing methods applied to cocoa pods, the tempering process applied to chocolate and identify key characteristics when tasting chocolate.
