Winery 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: This red wine was BY FAR my favorite wine I've ever tasted. It's definitely a substitute for having dessert in my opinion, as the chocolate and raspberry flavors are STRONG.  I don't like raspberries at all, but the raspberry and chocolate flavors worked incredible together. Without even swirling and sniffing, I was hit almost immediately with the scent of dark chocolate and it reminded me of the chocolate covered acai berries. After the initial sniff and swirl, it smelled like how a grandmothers house would smell, but it was pleasant!

I did not taste this wine with food.
