This Dark Chocolate Red Wine Bundt Cake is the perfect cake to whip up for any celebration. Super moist and every bit is so decadent!
I don’t even know what to say about this.
I mean, sure I could come up with a few things if I have to. I am all about chocolate and that’s not a secret. Even the world knows I’m a huge fan of dark chocolate. I chocolate everything, this, this, or this chocolate with bacon anytime any day, especially when it comes to celebration. I’m talking about Nordic Ware who celebrate their 70 wonderful years in the kitchenware business.
Nordic Ware has proudly produced quality kitchenware products since 1946. From humble beginnings, Nordic Ware has become an internationally distributed brand with a variety of collections, hundreds of products, and millions of fans. In celebration of this exciting achievement, they are releasing three new exclusive shapes inspired by Scandinavian roots and favorite designs in a special gold-metallic finish. Along with the new collection, they are launching contests and other events throughout the year to celebrate! We’re talking parteeee here. So what’s a better way than celebrating it with dark chocolate and red wine.
For reals, if you like red wine and dark chocolate, you will like this bundt cake. The red wine flavor is light, the ingredients are simple, the recipe is easy to follow, and the texture is incredible (and in my bundt cake bible, that’s always top of the list).

Red wine in a bundt form? Yes, please! I’ve used wine in cooking before, but never in a bundt cake. I love this idea! And those new bundt pan shapes are pretty epic. I might have a small addiction to unique bundt pans. Please tell me that I’m not the only one! 🙂
Thanks, David. I’m glad I’m not the only one. I love all the details in this bundt pan. Hope you get yours soon. 😀
