Puzzled about what the top gift ideas for wine lovers are? You may want to find the perfect wine-oriented gift for your favorite oenophile; but unless you’ve already spent a lot of time looking (and maybe if you have), you’re probably at a loss as how to find the perfect gift for the wine lover on your list. Of course, they’d prefer to have their own personal vineyard, but if this is beyond your means at the moment, keep reading for some other great gift ideas for the wine lover in your life.
10 Tempting Gifts for Crushed Grape (Wine) Lovers
1. Still gotta go with that vineyard motif….okay, not a whole vineyard. Some wineries advertise that you can become part owner in their independent vineyard for a cost. You might want to check this out, it won’t make you wealthy overnight, but hey, you will be a part owner. The part of the vineyard you own will really be small but the gift and the thought behind it are way cool.
2. Wine glasses. This is a gift which every wine lover will not only appreciate, but actually use; and they’ll think of you whenever they do. Look for large wineglasses which are made with quality craftsmanship – these will be attractive and your wine loving friends will adore them.
3. A Purple “Instant Youth” bottle bag is another good choice. This bag can fit around a bottle of wine; the bag features the slogan “Instant Youth, just add wine”. This is a good gift which is sure to get a smile out of the recipient – and if you put a good bottle inside, this will also be a deeply appreciated gift.
4. Personalized labels. You can order a bottle of Pinot Grigio, Cabernet Sauvignon or Petite Syrah which comes with a personalized label. You can have this printed in any design you like – you can even have a photograph of your choice printed in the label!
5. A wine box or wine basket is another one of the top gift ideas for wine lovers. You can find these carrying cases in leather, wicker or even wood. They come in sizes which can accommodate one, two or more bottles and the better models include accessories like glasses, stoppers and corkscrews. These wine gifts are certain to be used and loved at summer picnics and outdoor concerts.
6. Both fun and educational, the Wineopoly board game makes a great gift for your favorite wine lover. You can learn fun facts about wine while playing this game in which the game tokens include wineglasses, carafes, cheese and other wine-themed designs.
7. Wine glass charms make a great gift. Many wine lovers even collect these beautiful and decorative wine accessories, which can be custom made for you by some companies.
8. A wine club membership is a great gift for anyone on your list. This is a wonderful way to introduce them to your favorite winery or vineyard. These memberships have wine lists that can be tailored to please even the most discriminating palates.
9. Cookbooks with wine-related recipes also make great gifts for wine lovers. Food and wine were made to be together, after all. You could even create your own gift basket featuring one of these cookbooks, a god bottle of wine and any other additions you care to make – some assorted cheeses or napkins add a nice touch to this gift.
10. A novelty T-shirt printed with a wine-related slogan is certain to tickle the fancy of that special oenophile, such as:
• Get a Tan with your Tannins…pick your own grapes
• The Wine is Divine but it crushed the poor grapes
• Nectar of the gods…Produced by our soles
• Us Old Vines Have The Best Wines
• Wine is fruit….and they recommend 4 servings of fruit daily
