Rabbit Ridge Allure de Robles and Butterfinger

After my rather conventional wine and cheese pairing review from Wednesday, I’ve got something new for you.

Have you ever paired Rabbit Ridge Allure de Robles with a Butterfinger candy bar?

My husband tried this one a few nights ago and we were both amazed at how great the two tasted together. We even roped a friend into trying it and she agreed.

I don’t know what it is exactly about this fruity, Rhone style red from Paso Robles that goes so well with the Butterfinger, but I just know I like it. and it is only about $8 a bottle. Cha-CHING!

This has prompted me to wonder… what other candy bars go great with what other wines?

Ideas, anyone?
