Pairing
Chocolate with Cabernet Franc
Cabernet Franc is
gaining popularity as a stand alone wine. It is often used to
blend with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon to give them a new
complexity. Its taste stands between Cabernet Sauvignon and
Merlot being slightly lighter than Cabernet Sauvignon and a
hint spicier than Merlot. Some of its common flavors are
chocolate, coffee, berry and fruit palette, spicy herbs and
pepper. It is an easy drinking wine and, if done properly, it
is smooth and succulent with a bright fruity flavor.
