Candle Magic Vineyards

Fiorano (Boncompagni Ludovisi)

Principe di Venosa Vino da Tavola White Blend 1992

Mythical, mysterious, magic. This started with nuts and mushrooms, only pithy lemon for fruit. After it opened up for 30 minutes it really came to life! Pitted fruits, bright and very much alive. It was a pleasure at the table, really extenuating all the flavors from the kitchen. #onlygreatbottles

Jacques Selosse

Initial Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay

So good! Nose is unmistakable but I don’t have words for it. Texture plays between deep and lithe at the same time. Selosse has a magic touch.

Château Lanessan

Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Dark fruit balanced through old oak showing light spice on the nose encouraging thought to nail a specific note but is remaining a bit of an enigma in my rock rattled head after a good day enhanced by 75 MPH Harley induced wind and the brilliance of Bose and an iPhone. Ok, back to the wine, it touches, lightly grabs spreading its dark berry mini-burst in a layered earth touched tannin slow ride making magic with some of Chapel Hill's Bin 54's straight up amazing goodness (in this case very rare filet mignon, garlic tinged green beans and almond slivers; my go to steak spot in NC). Damn, this is all so right-on! Cheers! — 10 years ago

9.8

Rockin quaff: apricot flambé, portobello crust, cashew skin, honey-Meyer lemon custard, banana suggestion, juicy white peach, attitude, style and cheer. On palate, super-fine bead offsets just the right amount of autolytic crunch, with currents of expensive cashew milk conjoined with golden hay, chalky mineral bite, gardenia, musk and awesome. Long finish with plenty of cashew magic. In short: a dream ✨⭐️💛💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋 — 10 years ago
