The right wine gift depends on who it's for: a bottle rated 97 points or more for your best friend, something bold and complex for your in-laws, a top-rated wine at an approachable price for the neighbors, Champagne for your significant other and a Napa Valley all-star for the hard-to-shop-for.
Whether you need wine gifts for her or unique wine gifts for him, these suggestions work for anyone on your list.
You've been through it all together, seen the best and worst of each other, and are still by each other's side through thick and thin. Express your appreciation with a phenomenal bottle of wine. Wines with a professional rating of 97 points or better are an outstanding expression of whatever variety your best friend loves, so you can give one with confidence. With any luck, your friend will invite you to enjoy the bottle together.
Whether you think of them as "mom and dad" or you're still a bit intimidated by them, a great bottle of wine will make the right impression. Go for something bold and complex. If you know about a trip they took together that they've been reminiscing about, look for a bottle from that region, or pick something with great ratings to show you know they deserve the best.
Some say good fences make good neighbors, but we think good wine makes them even better. It's the thought that counts, especially if you only share a quick wave at the mailbox, but a top-rated wine at an approachable price takes the gesture above and beyond. Check the customer ratings, too, to make sure whatever you pick is a crowd pleaser.
Kick off the holidays together by sharing a bottle of romantic Champagne. Collectible sets or a bottle from a well-known producer are a luxurious way to welcome the season. If you're newly dating and don't know what type of wine your partner enjoys, Champagne is also a no-fail option that feels special.
There's always one on the list, someone who is beyond difficult to shop for. Don't stress out; go for a sure thing. These Napa Valley all-stars should do the trick.
