90 Point Schug Winery & Neuhaus Chocolates Wine Pairing Gift Set

Description

Wine, a masterpiece of craftsmanship, and chocolate, a delightful creation of artistry, share a common bond. Inspired by this profound connection, Neuhaus, the esteemed Belgian Chocolate Company, partnered with their Maîtres Chocolatiers to craft six new multi-layered praline flavors, meticulously designed to be savored alongside wine. This splendid combination not only elevates the taste of each element but also unlocks the very essence of their hand-selected wine pairings. The result is an extraordinary and singular tasting experience that even Bacchus, the god of wine, would revel in. It's more than just a gift; it's a masterpiece of flavor and artistry waiting to be explored.

Wine Gift Set Includes:

Schug Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir
This 100% Pinot Noir cuvée reflects the cool and windy microclimate of the Sonoma Coast AVA. The climate and terroir here provide ideal conditions for low yields (equating to more flavor intensity) and longer hangtimes (allowing Pinot Noir grapes to reach maturity while retaining their natural acidity and preserving the bright flavors of red cherries and raspberries). Schug ensures the elegant expression in this Pinot Noir by aging in large neutral oak casks, stainless steel, and older French oak barrels to keep new oak flavors to a minimum. Lively acidity on the finish makes it an ideal accompaniment to grilled fish and fowl or barbecued meats.
Rated 93 Points: Tasting Panel
Schug Sonoma Coast Chardonnay
The Sonoma Coast Chardonnay is produced without new oak, allowing the bright varietal character to shine through. Harvested from select vineyards in the Sonoma Coast AVA, including the cooler microclimates of western Carneros, the elegant aromas of fresh citrus, grapefruit, and white peach with hints of stone fruit abound. The juicy palate offers delicate flavors of Meyer lemon, yellow apple, kiwi, and nuances of honeysuckle, finishing with vibrant acidity and mineral-driven notes.
