Chocolate and Zinfandel
pairing
Zinfandel wine
originated from California and can be red or white. Both come
from red grapes, only thing is that White Zinfandel is being
specially processed and is more sweeter and lighter than Red
Zinfandel.
Try to buy Zinfandel wine which is
around three years old, but no older than five, because it may
radically loose all its berry (raspberry, cranberry and
blackberry) taste it is known for. Also look for Zinfandel wine
made from one type of grape, not the cheap blend of different
ones.
Dark chocolate is the best pair
to Zinfandel wines.

Zinfandel wine and Chocolate
ideas:
Peel Estate
Zinfandel *

Zinfandels go well with chocolate that has
some minty stuff in it, like mint bars, cremes, cookies etc.
This is the case with dark chocolate. To make such a tasting
even better go for wines with minty notes of their own, like
some Californian Zins are.
If you like mint taste in chocolate dessert
why not enjoy a bottle of Zinfandel with such a dessert...
* some regions may still have
restrictions due to their set law.
