The Ultimate Wine Lover’s Gift Guide
Looking for the perfect gift for your friend who loves wine as much as they love you? Here is the ultimate wine lover’s gift guide to help you find something as special as they are. Instead of just giving them a bottle, show them how well you know them with these unique gifts.
FOR THE FRIEND WHO IS ACCIDENT PRONE
I personally bought this pack of four silicone wine glasses for one of my best friends. She has broken numerous wine glasses at various houses because she is just clumsy. These 14-ounce glasses are inexpensive, easy to clean, dishwasher safer, and perfect for any outdoor event! Easy to pack up and extremely lightweight.
FOR THE FRIEND THAT LOVES TO COOK
“I love to cook with wine – sometimes I even put it in the food!” Sound familiar? This book contains over 70 recipes that incorporate wine into every meal! Recipes vary from soups, salads, appetizers, entrees, and even desserts, so you are sure to find delicious meals throughout. Chocolate and cabernet pots anyone?
FOR THE CLASSIER FRIEND
Nothing says class like a wine decanter. This beautiful wine decanter is perfect for the friend who likes to take their wine drinking to the next level. Or the friend who likes to pretend they can tell the difference between an expensive bottle of wine and a $6 bottle. The wide bottom is perfectly designed to allow a full standard bottle of wine to be exposed in the carafe allowing for maximum aeration.
THE IMPATIENT FRIEND
This aerator pourer was a gift from my boyfriend one Christmas, and we use it constantly. When we first opened it up we decided to pour one glass straight from the bottle and a second glass through the aerator to see if we could taste the difference. You absolutely can. It fits right into the top of the bottle and you just pour away! Trick your friends into thinking your wine collection is much higher end than it really is. It is a great stocking stuffer too!
THE FRIEND WHO VALUES COMFORT AS MUCH AS WINE
If you have been to Pinterest at all it is highly likely you have seen these adorable socks before. “If you can read this bring me some wine” sock became incredibly popular for their sassy saying. These combine the saying with nonslip fuzzy and cozy socks, making them the perfect gift for your friend who likes to sit back and relax with a glass in their hand. Plus, they come packaged like a cupcake! You can’t beat a pre-wrapped gift, especially one that they are sure to use.
THE FRIEND WHO DOESN’T LET WINE GO TO WASTE
I’m sure none of your friends like to waste wine, but this vacu vin wine saver is the perfect gift for your friend who doesn’t drink an entire bottle of wine in one sitting. The vacuum pump lets you remove all of the air from your wine bottle to keep it tasting fresh even after you have already opened it! You get 2 wine stoppers that go with the pump, or if you prefer you can buy a larger set as well. This was also a gift I had received before and I can’t imagine not having it in my bar now.
