Enjoy Lindt EXCELLENCE 70% alongside a red wine with fruity undertones. The peppery characteristics of a full-bodied Australian Shiraz add an extra dimension to this flavour profile for a winning after dinner combination.

Pair Lindt EXCELLENCE 85% with a full-bodied dry red wine to draw out its intense flavour. Zinfandel’s peppery notes and jammy berry flavours achieve the perfect balance by complimenting the earthy tones and fruity character of the dark chocolate for a decadent tasting experience.

A dark, refined and elegant chocolate deserves a full-bodied wine. Malbec’s darker flavours of blackberry, cherry and spice elegantly combine with the chocolate’s silky warmth and rich warm cocoa to bring out its fruity notes. The perfect prepping-the-dessert treat for any host or hostess. 

A smooth and silky wine – like Pinot Noir – is perfect to sip alongside a square of Lindt EXCELLENCE Sea Salt. The tart taste of the sea salt enhances the sweet chocolate flavour whilst balancing the fruity aromas of the wine. The result is a powerful burst of flavour.

For an exceptionally refreshing after-dinner treat, pour a glass of cabernet sauvignon to enjoy with a square of Lindt EXCELLENCE Mint Intense. The cool notes in the chocolate pair nicely with crisp minty notes of cold climate cabernet sauvignon. Wines with eucalyptus notes also work exceptionally well with this refreshing chocolate. 

A delicate red wine serves to elevate the rich flavour and smooth texture of Lindt EXCELLENCE 70%. The fruit-driven aroma and hints of spice characterising a pinot noir serve as a dark backdrop to the chocolate. Alternatively, try a sparkling shiraz for added lightness.

Spice things up by pairing Lindt EXCELLENCE Chilli alongside a classic Chianti. This light wine with notes of berries, cacao nibs and coffee lends a sweet edge to the gently warmth of the subtly spiced chocolate. A true taste sensation.

For a light summery taste, try pairing Lindt EXCELLENCE Orange Intense with a Grüner Veltliner. The fruity floral notes of grapefruit, peach and spice in the wine blend seamlessly with the zesty candied orange and almond undertones from the chocolate.

Balance out the decadent creams, caramel and honey in our Lindt EXCELLENCE Extra Creamy with the tropical fruit flavours in a light Chardonnay. The subtle sweetness of the wine combines with the honeyed flavours in the chocolate to give a summery feel – whatever the weather.

Celebrate with a glass of Prosecco and Lindt EXCELLENCE Dark Caramel and Sea Salt! The refreshing pear and citrus notes in this sparkling wine brings out the best of our luxurious, subtly sweet chocolate.

Chocolate and rosé are a tale as old as time, but Lindt EXCELLENCE 78% puts a whole new spin on the pairing. Our exquisite chocolate mellows out the acidity of the tannins and lifts the fruity, berry notes for a smooth and sweet taste. A true delight.
