Sake Hinata, a shop built around encounters with unique alcoholic beverages, has launched sales of “Chocolate VS Sweet Red.”
It's a red wine made especially for chocolate, with an irresistible sweet-and-tart character.
Here are the details.
About “Chocolate VS Sweet Red”
“Chocolate VS Sweet Red” is a sweet red wine with a finely judged balance: sweet, but not overly so.
It combines a rich cassis-jam aroma with charming wild-strawberry-like acidity, creating a flavor said to pair beautifully with chocolate.
With rich milk chocolate, it creates the luxurious impression of eating chocolate filled with berries.
With dark chocolate, you can enjoy the contrast between gentle bitterness and sweet-tart fruit.
Paired with nut-filled chocolate, the wine takes on an added roasted nuance, opening up another delicious side. It looks set to work with a wide variety of chocolates.
Made with “Adiron”
The grape used for “Chocolate VS Sweet Red” is Adiron, a variety sometimes called the “phantom black grape” of Yamanashi Prefecture.
It is a rare variety whose production has declined because it is difficult to grow, but its flavor is truly distinctive.
A charming aroma that suggests sweetness is balanced by refreshing acidity, giving the wine an almost dangerously easy-drinking appeal even on its own.
The wine is produced by Yamato Wine Co., Ltd.
Why not consider it for Valentine's Day this year?
