Gayle’s Chocolates Hosts 1st Annual Vortex Crunch and Wine Tasting event on Friday September 20th

With their new home of Cottonwood, Gayle's Chocolates team has already used the neighboring town of Sedona as inspiration for our newest signature creation, the Vortex Crunch. Rumored to have healing and energy powers, visiting Sedona’s vortex is said to be a truly spiritual experience. The Vortex Crunch sets out to mirror the experience -but with a chocolate twist! Crispy rice cereal, dried Michigan cherries, almonds, cashews, toffee, glazed orange peel and toasted coconut are drizzled with a layer of semisweet milk chocolate that can be said to be its own kind of spiritual healing.

Join Gayle’s Chocolates  on Friday September 20th from 12pm to 3pm as they unveil their new store with their First Annual Vortex Crunch Event in collaboration with Carlson Creek Vineyard and tasting room in Cottonwood. Guests will enjoy wines that pair with the Vortex Crunch,  including Carlson’s 2014 Rule of Three red blend and Carlson’s 2017 Muscat. 

Carlson Creek Vineyard is a family-owned vineyard and winery located in the heart of Cochise County in Southeastern Arizona, with tasting rooms located in Cottonwood, Scottsdale and Willcox, Arizona. Carlson Creek produces Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Muscat, Syrah, Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Malbec, Mourvèdre and Malvasia Bianca, with Chenin Blanc and Merlot varietals being locally sourced.
