Benoit chocolate

Today I felt particularly great. It might be the chocolate that I ate. There is a famous chocolatiere here in Angers; it is called Benoit. Everybody would like to have a try once in a while I guess. Today I felt particularly apt to do so, with some money in my wallet. I didn't plan to do it, just feel like it. The lady who accueil me was very, very nice. She was all smiley and helpful. I said I want chocolate without other additive stuff, just chocolate. She made some collection for me, and made me taste one with wine flavor when my expression showed some doubt over its taste- I remember well those chocolates I ate with wine flavors, which often left me wonder what was the point of putting wine into the chocolate. After I had a bite, I immediately nodded to included it in my collection. The wine was naturally and well- proportionly blended with the chocolate that I don't feel the presence of the wine, as overwhelming as otherwise produced. After I came home, I tried a pure chocolate with a golden label of Benoit on it. I like it even better. I then ate another wine- taste chocolate again it is still nobly rich and tasty, not diminished by the pure taste one with gold label on it. Although I spend 3.49 euros, with another 7.9 on the chocolate powder. I don't feel like it is a luxurious treat at all. My only worry is my weight.
