These handmade candles are wine-scented and poured into cut wine bottles to create a rustic final product that will provide a warm, inviting experience when lit. Available for purchase from [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-christmas-tree-alternative) retailer Napauncorked, the candles are crafted using [100% all-natural soy wax](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-lab-co-soy-wax-candles) and natural wine aroma that will burn for up to 60 hours.

The wine-scented handmade candles are contained in glass bottles that have been salvaged from wineries in Napa Valley in order to complete the look and experience of the candle. The candles come in a wide array of different scents that are formulated to be just like your favourite kind of wine. This makes it possible to find the perfect scent that will fill a home with the subtle scent of your favourite libation.
