KJ Writes:
   The main thing that I found most interesting about this scene, and 
the one where DD conjures a bottle of mead is the dust.  The wine at 
Spinner's End came out in a "dusty" bottle, as did the bottle of mead. 
It makes me wonder, if, in not living at the Dursleys', the mead 
provided was dusty, what does it say about Snape's living arrangements 
when his wine shows up dusty. When I first read the book, this caught my 
eye immediately, and I am sure that it is for a reason.
