Ingredients

6 bacon strips,

Looking to add a little flavor to your Valentine's Day this year? If you're sick of the same old box of chocolates and champagne, we suggest spicing things up a little this year with a bottle (or 2!) of our Rose Cuvee and homemade chocolate covered strawberries!

With its delicately sweet flavor and pink color, our Rose Cuvee is a perfect match for Valentine's Day. Homemade chocolate covered strawberries are a great pair with your glass of Rose Cuvee and are more thoughtful than buying a box of chocolates at the store! Don't be scared by the idea of "homemade" because dipping strawberries in melted chocolate is about as easy as it gets! Buy a couple bars of milk chocolate (or white chocolate as a unique alternative) and melt them in a pot over the stove. Stick your strawberries on toothpicks and dip them in! Drizze white chocolate over them or leave as is and dry them on parchment paper. Voila!
