Prior to that, we had not heard of them. They were kind enough to send us a Prosecco Brut and a Moscato D\u2019Italia, and we were thirsty enough to open them!!<\/p>\n<h4>Candoni Prosecco Brut<\/h4>\n<p>The Prosecco had a light nose, not too much happening; it had a good mouth feel with some lemon flavors. The price point on this one seems to be between $12 and $16. Overall, our thoughts were that this was a light, easy drinking bubbly. A good one to open in a group possibly because we think it would satisfy many palettes.<\/p>\n<h4>Candoni Moscato D&#8217;Italia<\/h4>\n<p>The Moscato D\u2019Italia had peaches and apricot on the nose, you could tell it was a sweet wine as well. The palette was fairly sweet as well; this is not typically our type of wine but we thought about scenarios in which we would enjoy this one\u2026it could be good with a bowl of fruit or with some desserts. It could also be fantastic chilled with a splash of cranberry juice on a 100 degree day.<\/p>\n<p>We appreciate Candoni Wines sending these samples! It was interesting for us because we are not wine critics, we think wine critics are lame\u2026generally speaking. We are, however, wine enthusiasts; and one of the things we think is extremely important in the wine world is context. A chilled wine on a winter day doesn\u2019t sound very good\u2026context. A big fruit bomb, heavy red wine does not sound good to us on a 100 degree day\u2026context.<\/p>\n<p>The Candoni Moscato made us stop thinking about how we don\u2019t typically like sweet wines, but think more about those times where we would possibly enjoy a sweet wine. So again, it comes down to the context in which you are drinking. There\u2019s an insane amount of wine out there, so go forth and drink\u2026but remember, a lot of wine drinking is situational, it\u2019s social, and fun! So loosen up that tie and don\u2019t be a wine critic all the time!<\/p>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\" style=\"margin-top: 10px;height: 15px\"><a class=\"zemanta-pixie-a\" title=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" href=\"http:\/\/www.zemanta.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"border: none;float: right\" alt=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/zemified_a.png?x-id=94ef0236-9dd3-443e-b5d2-83db38c649b7\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hoot actually came across Candoni Wines on Twitter ( @CandoniWines ) during a wine chat.
