You’ve heard of wine and chocolates, but how do you feel about chocolate wine?  
Crossing Vineyards Chocolate Cherry Truffle is among the nearly 40 wines that will be added to the shelves of Pennsylvania Wine & Spirits stores.

Other wines approved by the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board last week include Boyd's Cardinal Hollow Jalapeno and Shade Mountain Winery Six Dwarfs Mint Wine.  

The wines range in price from $8.99 to $32.99.  Eleven Pennsylvania wineries are taking part in the Department of Agriculture's PA Preferred program that allows the wineries to place a limited number of varietals in select Wine & Spirits stores.

The wines will hit shelves in 30 to 60 days, according to Stacy Kriedeman, spokesperson for the PLCB.  

It's not yet clear if the wines will be sold in the new Fine Wine & Good Spirits Premium Collection Store in the Village of Pine in Pine Township, but the PA Preferred wines will likely have signs identifying them, according to the Tribune Review.
