Chocolate

As a rule, chocolate is considered a "wine enemy". This means that you have to choose the right wine to go with it very carefully or, in extreme cases, that chocolate does not go with certain types of wine at all due to flavour disharmonies (see wine with food for more details).

Wine & chocolate

The fact that "wine and chocolate" are not considered to be compatible in this country is due to the preference for sweet milk chocolate in Germany and Austria. With bitter dark chocolate, on the other hand, there are many more possible combinations. There are a few basic rules for choosing the right chocolate and wine. The most important is: only high-quality chocolate and exquisite wines go together.
