Notes & Wine Advice
Serving Tip:
Top with soy whipped cream, fresh strawberries, or a drizzle of syrup for extra flavor!
Wine advice:
Port Wine – A sweet, rich red port can pair beautifully with chocolate and is perfect for indulgent dishes like these pancakes.
Lambrusco – A lightly sparkling, sweet red wine could provide a refreshing contrast to the richness of the pancakes.
Late Harvest Riesling – The sweetness and floral notes of a late-harvest Riesling would go well with chocolate, offering balance without overpowering the dish.
Zinfandel – If you prefer a more robust red, a fruity, slightly spicy Zinfandel could work, bringing a deeper flavor that still complements chocolate.
