Wine Gifting Tips
- When gifting wine keep in mind that the person isn’t obligated to share the wine with you.
- Wine can’t be refunded from the store like other gifts. Be mindful to choose a wine that the person drinks or expressed interest in exploring.
- If the person only drinks wine occasionally, consider giving them a half bottle of wine.
- If taking wine to a dinner party as part of the meal, ask what is being served. Then choose a wine to pair with the meal or desert.
- Choose an appropriate gift bag for the wine. The bag should reflect their personality and enhance the celebration.
