Don't be predictable.
Forget the generic wine gift baskets your loved one expect every year. Of course, they can include rare and expensive wines, but let's face it: they'll either be so special they gather dust until next year, or they'll be drunk by the weekend - forgotten and moved on. Why not give the gift of unforgettable wine experiences instead?
Discover the joy of giving a wine gift that keeps on giving, no matter their wine tastes – from bold Merlot to bubbly Sparkling, we have you covered below!
It's Time to Reimagine the Gift Experience
It's time to reimagine the gift experience. Let's shift our focus from products to experiences, taking an approach that truly celebrates the joy of wine. After all, wine isn't just about the liquid in the bottle; it's about moments, memories, and discoveries.

The Drawbacks of Traditional Wine Gifts
Traditional wine gifts, while well-intentioned, often fall short. They lack longevity - once consumed, the gift is gone. There's also the risk of mismatch; that prized Cabernet Sauvignon won't be ideal if they prefer a crisp Chardonnay. And let's not forget the predictability factor for these gifts; another bottle of wine can feel impersonal and unimaginative.
If it's the thought that counts, what does your perishable gift say about your thoughtfulness?
Extraordinary "WOW" Worthy Wine Experiences
When considering gifts for oenophiles and alike, several options might come to mind. Let's explore some popular choices:
1. Wine Tour Experiences
A wine tour can be an exciting adventure for any wine lover. Imagine strolling through sun-drenched vineyards, sampling red wine straight from the barrel, or learning the intricate process of crafting a lovely Chardonnay white wine. However, these experiences often come with a hefty price tag.
They also require travel, which may not be feasible for everyone, and are typically time-intensive. While undoubtedly memorable, wine tours might not be the most practical gift for every occasion or budget.
2. Virtual Wine Tasting Experiences
In our digital age, virtual wine tastings have gained popularity. They offer the convenience of sipping wine from the comfort of home, while an expert guides you via video call. However, these experiences still require purchasing wine separately, which can add to the overall cost and hassle.
Moreover, they may lack the depth of connection found in in-person experiences. The reliance on technology can sometimes lead to technical hiccups, potentially diminishing the overall enjoyment of the tasting.
3. Hands-On Wine Education Workshops
For those who love to learn by doing, hands-on wine education workshops (especially with Coravin partnered Sommeliers) can be a fantastic gift. These sessions might involve blind tastings of all varietals, from crisp Sauvignon Blancs to complex red blends, or even lessons in food and wine pairing.
While these workshops offer valuable knowledge and experience, they're not without drawbacks. High-quality workshops won't be easy to get to locally in all areas. Additionally, they usually require committing to a specific schedule, which might not suit everyone's lifestyle or preferences.
4. Gift the Ultimate Home Wine Bar Experience
So, what's the solution that combines the best of all worlds without the drawbacks? Enter Coravin by-the-glass systems – the ultimate home wine bar experience. This innovative system allows wine lovers to enjoy any wine, anytime, without the need for travel, scheduled events, or finishing the entire bottle.
