Wish they'd bring back port and chocolate tasting!

I ran across this picture today. It's a loooooong time ago, when DCA offered a chocolate and port tasting. It was on the patio underneath what is now the Magic Key terrace. My sister and friends and I had a blast, and our sommelier (?) was quite generous with the pours. We got to sample 3 vintages, in order of age (the port, not us), and the Ghirardelli chocolate that was paired with it was different for each. We also got to sample the Disney sparkling wine (RIP), which I believe was called Magicale. You could buy it there but you'd have to be escorted by a CM to the exit gate. Our sommelier also suggested that we should immediately head for what was then Tower of Terror following our tasting . That's me on the right.

This sounds like so much fun! I wish they would offer this again!

You just reminded me of a lovely memory. We were served Magicale at our Disney Fairytale wedding. It was so good! They used to sell it in the grand California gift shop. ️
