Shop Review: Aurora is a sweet red wine that Daniel Cellars have added Chocolate and Raspberries to. Chocolate is the dominate aroma and flavor with Raspberry accents. This is a perfect wine for chocolate lovers. Best served ice cold with a friend.

My Review: I found this a surprisingly excellent dessert wine. There was a strong smell of chocolate, though subtle raspberry underlayer. The taste was mostly raspberry with a chocolate-y aftertaste. The chocolate aftertaste was not too strong or too light to leave a bitter flavor. I would definitely buy this again because it is a splendid blend of red wine, chocolate, and raspberry.    

I tasted this on its own with no food.
