Niagara is Canada's wine country — and few things complement a great Niagara wine like quality chocolate. At St. Davids Chocolates, we're in a unique position: we supply premium chocolate to confectioners and AB Mauri wine yeast to wineries, so we see both halves of the perfect pairing.
Simple chocolate and wine pairing tips
- Dark chocolate with bold reds — a high-cocoa dark chocolate stands up to Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, or a Niagara Baco Noir.
- Milk chocolate with lighter reds and rosé — smoother, sweeter chocolate softens tannins.
- White chocolate with sweet whites — try white chocolate with Moscato, Riesling, or Niagara icewine.
Two ingredients, one supplier
Winemaking and chocolate-making share many of the same building blocks — sugars, acids, and careful fermentation. From our St. Davids location we supply both premium chocolate and a full range of AB Mauri wine yeast strains, along with the nutrients and acidulants each craft requires.
