I'm not kidding. You have been warned. There are truffles, and there are these very pink wines, and then there is your own common sense. Let that be your guide.
Chocolat Céleste truffles are available as one in a box for $3.95; four for $14.95; nine for $29.95; 16 for $49.95. They are on sale both at Leonard's store and at numerous local retail outlets including the Woodbury Kowalski's (8505 Valley Creek Rd., Woodbury; 651.578.8800) and France 44 (4351 France Ave. S., Mpls.; 612.925.3252.).
