This is your official invitation to a seriously delicious Valentine’s Day! Join Le Dû Wines for a one-night celebration of chocolate, wine, and undeniable chemistry, featuring eight iconic Venchi chocolates matched with eight boundary-pushing, small-production wines from their low-intervention lineup. Romantic? Absolutely. Predictable? Never. It all happens on Saturday February 14, 2026 starting at 3:00pm.
Grab your $29 Ticket (a $44 value) that gets you admission to this sweet sensation, complete with 8 Tastings of Curated Wines that will be paired with 8 Chocolates by Venchi Fine Italian Chocolates.
Venchi is chocolate royalty, with over 140 years of Italian craftsmanship, luxury cacao, and cult-favorite creations that define indulgence. Paired with Le Dû Wines’ globally respected, sommelier-driven selection, the result is pure magic.
Expect bold, crave-worthy pairings like PYCM Rosé de Pinot Noir 2024 with White Chocolate Raspberry Squares, Thorne & Daughters Rocking Horse 2022 with Lemon Vanilla White Chocolate Pralines, and Edi Keber Collio Bianco 2022 with Dark Chocolate Pistachio Pralines.
The night goes deeper and darker with Breton Vouvray Pierres Rousses 2017 alongside Chocolate-Covered Orange Peels, Domaine Cazes Macabeo Orange 2024 with Arancia Chocoviar, Domaine Nico Pinot Noir 2022 paired with Crème Brûlée Chocoviar, and finishes strong with Thorne & Daughters Wanderer’s Heart 2022 and Malvirà Roero Riserva “Mombeltramo” 2013 matched to rich cacao nib chocolates.
Decadent. Textural. A little sexy. Come for the chocolate, stay for the chemistry...
Nestled in the West Village, Le Dû Wines has been a pillar of New York City’s fine wine community since 2005. Founded by the late Jean-Luc Le Dû (one of the city’s most respected sommeliers) the shop reflects a lifetime devoted to wine at its highest level. Jean-Luc’s distinguished career included helping Restaurant Daniel earn a Wine Spectator Grand Award in 2002 for its world-class wine program.
At its core, Le Dû Wines was conceived as a place where wine is both an art form and a shared experience. Guided by Jean-Luc’s belief in education, approachability, and deep expertise, the shop was envisioned as a boutique destination for discovery. Nearly two decades on, that founding vision continues to shape a thoughtfully curated selection of artisanal, rare, and benchmark wines from around the world.
Spanning iconic Bordeaux châteaux, rare Champagnes, refined Burgundies, dynamic Californian estates, and trailblazing natural producers from South Africa, South America, and beyond, the collection strikes a careful balance between tradition and exploration, best showcased in their coveted tasting events.
Just as important is the shop’s deeply personal approach to service. Led by a team of seasoned sommeliers, educators, and passionate wine professionals, Le Dû Wines prides itself on offering tailored guidance to every guest. Whether sourcing a cellar-worthy rarity or selecting the perfect bottle for tonight’s dinner, expertise is always paired with genuine enthusiasm and care.
Today, with more than twenty years of history and a reputation built on integrity, curiosity, and passion, Le Dû Wines remains one of New York City’s most respected and beloved wine jewels...
