Dolce Wine
Are you throwing a dinner this Halloween? Well an extremely important part of the dinner party is not only the dishes you will be serving but the drinks you have to go with them. You can make a delicious mixed drink, serve something non-alcoholic, or talk to a wine professional and serve wine that beautifully matches your dishes. I recently tried the most delicious wine I have ever tasted. It is called Dolce. This wine is not for the small budget. It averages $69.99 a bottle for 375 ml. Yes I know it is insanely expensive, and not a large bottle but it is a dessert wine therefore you do not need as much. You can give each person a small tasting with their dessert.

This is the wines description based on the above website:
“Sweetness. Like the most sinful dessert in liquid form, the 2005 Dolce, from the folks at Far Niente, satisfies our craving for sweetness with some hidden surprises. A combination of late harvest sémillon and sauvignon blanc from the foggy town of Coombsville, east of Napa, the Dolce is Napa's Sauternes-style dessert wine, with its earthy, botrytis underpinning and joyful acidity. Wonderfully food-friendly, this will pair well with foie gras, poached figs, cheeses, chocolate or crème brulee. Or cellar and watch the wine evolve.”
This wine is good for people who do not really like wine. I myself am not a big wine drinker at all, and I happen to love the sweet taste of this wine. As stated above the wine is super expensive but I would not leave a bottle on the table I would serve one of the above recommend desserts (if you make crème brulee I recommend using orange food die to make it festive) and serve a small amount in a wine glass, describe the wine and put the bottle away.
