Valentine’s Day Gifts for the Perfect Night In

Champagne may be common on February 14, but If you’re looking for something especially singular that will still surprise, small producer Marie-Nolle LeDru offers a Champagne that’s celebrated by some of the world’s greatest sommeliers and everyone lucky enough to get their hands on a bottle (it’s hard to find). Luckily for you, we found a batch at New York’s Astor Wines, that’s available online. The best part? It retails for under $100. Marie-Nöelle LeDru, “Cuvée du Goulté” Blanc de Noirs (2010), $84.99 at astorwines.com

Originally designed by architect Peter Karpf in 1965, this candleholder may have the most romantic creation story of any candleholder in history: according to Karpf, the two holders, fashioned from a single piece of stainless steel, are separated by the smallest mathematical distance from each other that’s functionally possible.

Candles are one romantic meal cliche that’s worth committing too, but so many are so strongly scented they can ruin the sensory experience of the food itself. Not so with natural beeswax candles, their scent is light and natural, and they last longer, too, so you don’t have to worry about the flame puttering out mid-meal.
