This chocolate fudge is all about fresh, zesty orange.
Hand zested orange brings citric acid and prepares the mouth for a wine reception.
Taste the wine, then the chocolate, and return to the wine, and wait for subtle spices to be drawn from the wine appearing at the back of the mouth.

How to Taste with Wine
Taste the wine before and after the chocolate to compare.
Taste the wine.
Taste the chocolate & as the flavours develop…
Taste the wine & reaccess the wine.
Why does it work?
Without dairy, flavours carried by the chocolate are pure.
Chocolate falls away quickly leaving the flavour reflections to engage with the wine.
Our flavours reveal in sequence, just like wine reveals it’s own qualities slowly.
