Along this path, he gathered a wealth of inspirations and influences from around the world, which he brought back to Portugal.

Vinte Vinte sources the cacao and wine from diverse global regions, locating them within specific longitudinal belts. The cacao belt stretches between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn, spanning 20 degrees north to 20 degrees south of the Equator. In contrast, the primary wine-producing regions extend from 30 to 50 degrees north and from 30 to 50 degrees south. This natural geographical alignment fosters a harmonious connection between wine and chocolate, a pairing considered by many to be heavenly.

Similar to their approach to wines, meticulous attention is given to the origins and quality of the raw materials they employ. This commitment led them to explore key cultivation areas, ensuring the sourcing of top-quality cacao for crafting a range of premium artisan chocolates in Vila Nova de Gaia, in conjunction with their renowned Port Wine. At Vinte Vinte, they recognize that exceptional chocolate hinges on the quality of the cacao. What sets them apart is their diligent selection of cacao, exclusively harvested from the finest terroirs and sourced with the highest quality ingredients in mind.

This meticulous approach grants them greater control over the entire production process, enabling them to monitor every step in the journey of their raw materials. Vinte Vinte introduces a world of chocolate, encased in bars bursting with rich flavors. These bars are meticulously crafted with quality ingredients sourced from various corners of the globe, all prepared with unwavering passion and expertise in Porto.

Cocoa paste, sugar, skimmed milk powder (22%), berries (raspberry, blueberry, strawberry, redcurrant) (4%), SOY lecithin and vanilla. May contain traces of nuts.

Our chocolate makers proudly refrain from using any artificial stabilizers or preservatives in their products, making their creations more temperature-sensitive compared to other premium chocolates.

To ensure the optimal taste experience, it's advisable to store our chocolates in a cool, dry place where the temperature hovers between 16°C and 18°C. Please refrain from refrigerating our chocolates, as this may cause sugar crystallization due to increased humidity, altering their texture and flavor.

On the contrary, if stored in excessively high temperatures, cocoa butter may separate and form a white film on the chocolate's surface. This loss of cocoa butter can lead to the chocolate drying out and, consequently, a potential alteration in flavor. Your mindful storage practices will help preserve the integrity of our delectable chocolates.
