Bitter, heavily cocoa flavored. Some chalkiness, with an astringent aftertaste. 6.7If I were awarding points for "user friendliness" of the bar, this bar would get negative points. It comes as a brick that is one-inch thick and with a note explaining that you need to break off a piece of the bar by using a sharp knife stabbed into the top. Inconvenient and dangerous. The box appears to be designed to be inserted onto the neck of a bottle of wine, which is the target market for this bar.
I see on the ingredients list that vanilla is added to this bar, along with "natural flavors." This colors the flavors I mention above.
The "Suggested wine pairing" for this bar is: "Cabernet, Bordeaux, Barolo, Malbec" None of these were available for me to try with this bar. However I would agree with the sentiment on the box: "formulated to pair with the deepest red wines." Unfortunately, this approach does not earn a higher rating for chocolate taste quality.
