Chocolate Cabernet Flavors Di ‘ Vine’ Wine Cake
"The winner of the first Bundts Across America Contest was this Chocolate Cabernet Flavors Di ‘Vine’ Wine Cake. I've made this bundt cake many times and it is so good and I wanted to post it here for safe keeping. Wine pairings: Darker red wines, such as Syrah, Cabernet and fruity Merlot;
Sweeter reds such as Brachetto or Lambrusco;
Ruby-style ports, including Late-Bottled and Vintage ports."

This is such a great recipe! I made cupcakes instead of a bundt cake, and used a recipe for a cream cheese frosting that was not overly sweet. My fiance and a friend were more than happy to be my guinea pigs for this baking experiment, and my friend decided to rename this recipe "Sin on a Plate." The only alterations I made to the recipe (other than putting it into cupcake form) was to mix in 1/4 cup raspberry preserves instead of using raspberries, and using Devil's Food cake mix instead of chocolate--just because I had forgotten to pick up those items at the store!
