I am a newbie into the world of making chocolate, I have been reading about making chocolate, playing and experimenting and lovin every minute of it. As a new found passion and a great lover of wine I would like to pair the two and do tastings with friends and family. Now I have read there are people out there doing tastings and wondering what is your best approach. ie. What kind of wines go best with what kind of chocolate? Any flavored truffles that go nicely? I believe the sweeter the wine the darker the chocolate? Please correct me if I'm wrong.Any advice or idea's would be appreciated. this is my first experience with this site and am glad I found it to bounce my million questions off.

Two changes we made with the chocolate is that this time we winnowed the chocolate. This time we didn't use a blow dryer to melt the chocolate. Two improvements with the chocolate is that the melanger didn't get clogged this time and everyone put in work.
