Who doesn’t love chocolate? And if you’re reading this blog, I’m guessing it’s safe to assume you also love wine…so you’ll probably want to know about an event planned for this weekend that showcases both.
Bainbridge Island’s wineries are participating in a Wine and Chocolate Weekend Saturday and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m. Unlike other winemakers weekends were people can visit the tasting rooms and the wineries, this weekend’s event will be held at the wineries only — so if you head to any of the three tasting rooms on Winslow Way, while you’ll find wine, you won’t find chocolate.
Artisan chocolates will be paired with the handcrafted wines at the following wineries:
- Amelia Wynn Winery — assorted fine chocolates
- Eagle Harbor Wine Co. — Custom-made chocolates from Port Townsend
- Eleven Winery – Handmade chocolates by Tamas Ronyai
- Fletcher Bay Winery — assorted fine chocolates
- Perennial Vintners — Chocolates by Yukon Jacksons of Seattle, featuring dark chocolate truffles made with PV Frambelle ganache. Keith Jackson will be at the winery on Saturday.
- Rolling Bay Winery — Theo Chocolates paired with wines
- Victor Alexander Winery — assorted fine chocolates
If you visit Rolling Bay Winery they are also using this Valentine’s Day weekend to showcase the release of their 2011 Rosé — with each bottle purchased you’ll receive a free rose.
