Just opened Erikson & Caradin’s Raptor & Crimson Cabernet (Napa). Dark fruit, graphite, a clean streak of cocoa + sage. Smooth, structured, and quietly powerful, the kind of Cab that doesn’t show off, it just wins the room. Elegant finish with a little wild edge. #Wine #WineWednesday

I’ve just opened a Famiglia Pasqua Amarone della Valpolicella 2012 On the nose, it’s deep and brooding: black cherry, dried plum, tobacco leaf, and a touch of dark chocolate. The first sip is lush, with velvety tannins and a long, slow finish that carries notes of fig, espresso, spice, and a hint of vanilla from the oak. This 2012 vintage has clearly had enough time to settle into itself. Everything feels integrated — the fruit, the structure, the acidity — all in balance. #wine

Divers have unearthed a 170-year-old shipwreck near Öland, Sweden, packed with over 100 bottles of Champagne and mineral water. This 19th-century vessel could be linked to Russian royalty, possibly carrying Louis Roederer Champagne destined for the Imperial courts. winespectator.com/articles/s… #Champagne #Shipwreck #Wine

Congrats! Hope you enjoyed sipping that 1964 Château Lafite Rothschild. A classic Bordeaux legend, with rich notes of dried fruit, leather, and cedar, it’s a timeless wine that still has plenty of life. #FineWine #Bordeaux
Celebrating my 39th trip around the sun with a 1964 Lafite! So much life left in this bottle. Let’s go!

When pairing wine with chocolate, consider the type and intensity of both. Rich dark chocolate pairs well with bold reds like Cabernet Sauvignon, while sweeter chocolates complement dessert wines like Port. decanter.com/learn/food/guid… #Wine #Chocolate #PairingTips
