A Great Pairing With Wine

Wine PAiring Two

Wine and cheese have gone hand in hand for centuries now, so we thought it was about time to spice things up.  Believe it or not, our gourmet Mandelbroyt is the perfect pairing with wine.  So go ahead pour yourself a glass, we did! In fact we recently tested our theory, pairing our five flavors with some of our favorite wines. Check out what we came up with and share your discoveries with us!

  • Original Recipe: We suggest Merlot for this one. Merlot has hints of plum, dark cherry and a plush texture that would compliment the chocolate bits and nutty flavors. 
  • Minty Dark Chocolate: This one took a few attempts to get right.  The acid in the wine was creating a bitter taste when mixed together with the mint.  But once paired with a Sparkling wine it was pure heaven.  The toasty note in sparkling wine compliments the mint and chocolate just right.
  • Chocolate Espresso Bean:  This one simply screams Cabernet. The notes of cocoa, smoke and leather that are found in a good Cab create a great balance with the chocolate espresso.
  • Lemon Blueberry with Poppyseeds:  We’re shifting gears to white wine.  A buttery Chardonnay pairs perfectly.  The wine has just enough oak to please most Chardonnay drinkers but balances it out with hints of Meyer lemon ad bright acidity.
  • Spicy Chipotle with Ginger and Dark Chocolate: Due to the spice in our Chipotle flavor we opted for a light bodied Pinot Grigio.  The wine has just enough acidity to balance the spice, yet ample fruit flavors to compliment the ginger notes.
