Unfortunately I will have to say I not a major wine drinker so I know the charateristics of wines but not much beyond that. Last year I combined a surah with a dark chocolate. The high fruit went well with the low bitterness and acid. I normally boil it down to a 1/4 cup syrup. One bottle of surah went over great. A different bottle turned out nasty. Both surahs that had good flavor when drank from a bottle but very different flavors when concentrated and I have no idea why.
