Wine Gifts and More

As I continue to look at summer gifts ideas, wines come to mind as a a great choice for weddings, anniversaries, and almost any celebration you can think of.  It is also great to have on hand for your summer parties and when you have overnight guests.

Wine.com offers you a variety of wines, in fact, they have over a thousand varieties to choose from, and each wine listed has wine maker’s notes to tell you all about it.  And if you’re buying for a friend or colleague, they  also offer lovely corporate gifts, wine club memberships,  and gift baskets to meet your needs.

One of my husband’s friends is a newlywed. He recently took his wife to the beach for vacation, and he bought a bottle of wine for the trip so they could have a picnic on the beach. The picnic basket above made me think of them! It’s filled with  lovely things like chocolates, pistachios, crackers, biscotti, and more!

And who doesn’t love a cupcake? The Barefoot Contessa Cupcakes & Wine Gift Set comes with everything you need make your own coconut cupcakes with cream cheese frosting, including the mixes, spatula and the jelly bean topping.  I think anyone who loves baking would adore this set!

I also like the Tuscan Trattoria Italian Wine Gift Basket.  This would make for someone who loves to cook or for someone who just loves pasta.  Everything is presented creatively in a stainless steel collander, and it includes wine, along with pastas, an imported tomato basil sauce, almond anise biscotti, and more!
