Debonne Razzberry Riesling

This exquisite Ohio wine is paired with indulgent dark Belgian chocolate, elegantly garnished with a ring of irresistible raspberry candy and a rich drizzle of ruby chocolate. The combination creates a tasting experience reminiscent of the nostalgic flavors of Tootsie Pops.

 This wine opens with a delicate raspberry aroma, evolving into a fruity and lightly sweet profile with prominent notes of raspberry and Riesling. The balance of sweetness and fruitiness makes it a versatile choice for pairing with a variety of chocolate confections.

When we paired this wine with chocolate, we considered the balance between the wine's sweet, fruity notes and the rich, complex flavors of chocolate. The wine’s subtle sweetness and raspberry undertones make it an ideal match for chocolates that complement its flavor profile without overpowering it.

Suggested Chocolate Pairings:

1. Dark Chocolate with Raspberry Infusion: The intensity of dark chocolate paired with raspberry-infused varieties will enhance the wine's fruity raspberry notes and create a harmonious balance between the wine and the chocolate.

2. Milk Chocolate with Caramel: The creamy sweetness and caramel notes in milk chocolate will complement the wine’s light sweetness, adding a layer of richness that enhances both the chocolate and the wine’s flavors.

3. White Chocolate with Berry Compote: The smooth, creamy texture of white chocolate combined with a berry compote or swirl will amplify the wine’s raspberry undertones, creating a delightful pairing that highlights the wine's fruity characteristics.
