Beware: chocolate is a such a strong, evocative flavor that it neutralizes most wines – especially sparkling wines.
Here’s a much better, more lyrical pairing: Chocolate with Bourbon. Specifically, the Limited Edition partnership of Compartés Chocolates paired with Woodford Reserve Kentucky Bourbon.
Pear nutmeg is my personal favorite of the mouth-watering flavors that include butterscotch, oak-smoked salted caramel and maple pecan.
Totally delightful bites, alongside a small glass of Bourbon at the end of a meal.
