Cabernet Salted Chocolate Bars

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

TCHO Chocolate and Clif Family Winery Collaborated on Napa Noir

— September 19, 2024 — Lifestyle
Celebrating the classic pairing of chocolate and wine—both beautiful in their own right but even better together—TCHO Chocolate and Clif Family Winery joined forces to create the Napa Noir dark chocolate bar. This collaborative dark chocolate bar features fruit-forward cacao from Africa and South America, Cabernet Sauvignon-infused sea salt and cacao nibs aged in Clif Family’s red wine barrels for up to eight months.

The Napa Noir dark chocolate bar shares nuanced, complex flavors that balance sweet, tangy and salty notes with satisfying crunchy pieces. The 100% plant-based bar from the B Corp-certified chocolate maker combines the best elements of chocolate and wine in a bite, offering a convenient snack for fans of both indulgences.
Trend Themes
1. Wine-infused Chocolates - The synthesis of wine and chocolate in a single product offers a novel taste experience blending luxury and convenience.
2. Plant-based Indulgences - The emergence of 100% plant-based luxury chocolates caters to the growing demand for sustainable and ethical confectionery options.
3. Collaborative Gourmet Products - Partnerships between unique brands, like wineries and chocolatiers, create distinctive and premium treats that appeal to gourmet enthusiasts.
Industry Implications
1. Luxury Confectionery - Innovative flavors and premium ingredients drive the creation of high-end chocolate products that cater to discerning consumers.
2. Plant-based Foods - The rising trend in plant-based diets encourages the development of indulgent, ethical sweet treats for health-conscious consumers.
3. Wine - Wineries exploring new product collaborations can attract broader audiences through unique and memorable taste experiences.
