Wine Gift Baskets: A Great Gift Idea


It's always difficult to think of a suitable gift idea at the last minute. You don't want to spend money on something that will just be regifted, but finding the right thing can be daunting. If you're the type of shopper that's loath to go anywhere near a mall during the holiday shopping season, the Internet offers a myriad of alternatives--almost too many.

If you want a sure-fire choice, consider a wine gift basket. It's a versatile choice. Usually a great bottle of wine or champagne is paired with something delicious. It might be the traditional cheese, but it could also be something novel like imported cookies. Often companies that sell wine baskets sell non alcoholic baskets filled with things like coffee, tea, and other yummy snacks. Who can say no to a chocolate lover's picnic basket filled with chocolate-covered truffles and champage? Now that's an excellent pairing that will make your gift an instant hit.

Here are some popular categories:

  • Non Alcoholic Baskets
  • Chocolate Gifts
  • Wine Baskets
  • Champagne Baskets
  • Ben & Jerry's Baskets
  • Coffee/Tea Baskets
  • Kosher Baskets
  • Chamnpagne Baskets
  • Beer Baskets
The foodstuffs in these baskets are fresh and gourmet quality. The recipient is bound to feel special. The categories should cover your gift giving requirements for more than just the Christmas season. Specialty baskets for such occasions as graduations, retirements, and promotions have already been thoughtfully created. Of course, it's possible to have the your choice shipped directly to the lucky recipient. Just remember the time of year and act accordingly.

Dunn Vineyards


"The formidable 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain boasts an inky/purple color to the rim, and smells like blackberry liqueur intermixed with acacia flowers. With extraordinary intensity, power, richness, and purity, this dry red wine from California looks to be one of the greatest efforts made by Randy Dunn. Since none of the Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignons (first released in 1979) are close to full maturity, this 2001 will probably need 8-10 years of cellaring; it should last for 3-4 decades. An interesting point of trivia is that Randy Dunn's production of approximately 4,000 cases of Napa and Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon per year has not changed since the winery's inception ... somewhat refreshing in view of the American cultural tendency to think that "bigger is better".

Mags: Good morning, Grazia (#3)!

Sun, 03 Aug 2008 18:42:41 PDT
Grazia takes its cover cue from last week's UK edition, running with Sarah Jessica Parker ("bravely facing a marriage breakdown") this week. But that's not where the comparisons stop – inside you'll also find Jennifer Aniston ("She's a sweetheart... but is she John's?"), who ran in last week's Grazia UK. It seems the Aussie edition is still getting warmed up (no mean feat when your fingers are frost-bitten – bring on spring, I say!). The latest edition of this new Aussie weekly gives us more fa

Sunday Night Reflections

Sun, 03 Aug 2008 17:12:14 PDT
So, today was the “alcohol” sermon…here are a few thoughts on the day… I personally thought the most intense part of the day is when I asked everyone in the room to declare where they stood on the issue before I even addressed it. “Last Name,” was the perfect song to set up the day! I sat on the front row at the Anderson campus this morning…and the energy for the first song was amazing. For those who want to hear the message you can download it on itunes…or you can go to our website here at Ne

The Last Word Once Again Goes To Dr. Rogers

I got two big posts out of my system last week. The first addressed my final thoughts on Asheboro's alcohol referendum. In a "kiss-my-great-big-giant-butt-all-you-arrogant-jerks-who've-called-me-ugly-names" moment, the second post addressed actions taken by the NC Medical Board this month which should resoundingly shoot down any past arguments concerning my credibility in the medical matters about which I blog. I've been telling the truth from day one. No one has wanted to hear it (especially n
