Wine Pairing

Description: This fruit wine is made by fermenting fresh raspberries to create a juicy, lusciously sweet wine with rich, jammy flavours and a fresh, long finish.

Pairing: When serving a wine with dessert, make sure that the wine is at least as sweet as the dessert itself or the wine will taste a little bitter. Framboise matches perfectly with dark chocolate – it is sweet and rich and is the perfect contrast of flavours, while also mirroring the flavour and texture of the raspberry sauce.

Wine Suggestion: Southbrook Farms Framboise (Ontario, Canada)
