When Wine Meets Cocoa: A Study in Balance and Indulgence

Candlelight, polished glassware, and the slow melt of chocolate set the tone for an evening built around contrast and harmony.

Guests explored how tannins interact with cocoa percentages, how acidity lifts sweetness, and how texture changes the perception of flavor. From bold reds against dark chocolate to brighter varietals paired with silky confections, each pour and bite revealed something new.

This class was less about indulgence and more about intention. The structure of wine. The nuance of chocolate. The balance between the two.
