Batch PDX to Return to Helvetia

Batch PDX chocolatier who coined the term “Chocolate Hedonism” is back again in time for Valentine’s Day

Jeremy Karp’s  special selection of  Batch PDX truffles will be in the Winery this weekend through February. Batch PDX took the world of chocolate by storm in 2013 when Jeremy developed a line of artisan truffles  that has Food & Wine, Portland Monthly, Willamette Week and The Oregonian singing it’s praises.

Batch PDX uses all local ingredients, and puts an avant-garde twist on the traditional truffle with inventive ingredients like ghost peppers and passion fruit. Chocolate expert Valerie Beck calls Karp “A Chocolate Magician…some of the most exquisite I’ve tasted in quite some time. Everyone who sampled from my batch of Batch PDX fell into rapture and reverence.”

Come in on through Valentine’s Day and taste for yourself why Batch PDX chocolates are so special.  Our 2009 Pinot Noir is tasting especially well with Batch PDX truffles, and we can help you put together a thoughtful and delicious Valentine’s Day combination. Last year we sold out of Batch PDX chocolates, so plan on getting here early.

 

Wine + Chocolate Weekend at Helvetia Winery

Our Valentine’s Day Dinner sold out in record time this year, but it’s not too late to plan a romantic getaway at Helvetia Winery. Bring your sweetheart out to our country winery to experience our first ever Wine + Chocolate Weekend Event, on February 13 & 14 from 12-5pm. We introduced Batch PDX truffles into the winery as a Valentine’s Day last year, but it is only recently that we added a dark chocolate fudge as a part of our wine tasting flight. Come in and discover how wines can complement the unique flavors of chocolate with each sip and bite.

Wine Tours are still available if you’d like to enhance your winery experience and make the day at Helvetia Winery truly special. Tasting Fee is $10/person and waived with the purchase of a bottle of wine. Wine Club Members are always welcome to taste for free.
