We’ve all got one in our lives, but if you know a wine lover and have a special occasion coming up, grabbing them yet another bottle of their favourite merlot can start to feel a little lacklustre. Whether it’s a birthday, an anniversary or a Christmas present, sometimes you need a wine gift that’s a little out of the box. If you’re feeling stuck on gifts for the wine drinker in your life, check out our best wine gifts that celebrate their passion for plonk, but feel a little bit more special and unique for a special occasion.
Gifts for wine drinkers
We’ve assembled our shortlist of the best wine gifts based on a few different standards — they’ve all been chosen for a particular kind of wine lover, and we’ve prioritised gifts that will make them feel special, but above all, they’ll actually use. So without further ado, let’s get into our list.
- For the picnic lovers
If you know someone who loves to enjoy vino in the great outdoors but hates having to settle for screw tops and disposable plastic cups, you’ll love our wine lover gift set. It comes with everything they need to serve wine in style, no matter where they are. This set comes with a corkscrew, wine pourer, wine stopper, foil cutter, and a wine collar. It all folds up into a matte black wine bottle-shaped container, which can be easily stored in a wine rack or portable esky. Cute, functional and portable, it’s the perfect addition to a refined picnic in the sun.
- For the traditionalist
A classic item for a classic wine lover. If they’re all about classic full-bodied reds and enjoying old world wines, a convenient 6 bottle wine rack allows them to store their favourite tipples handily on a kitchen bench or sideboard.
Our wine racks allow for trapped air formed by the wine’s ullage to remain at the top of the bottle. This means that wine stored in a rack can mature slowly and more gradually, preserving wines for longer and bringing out maximum complexity and character in every drop.
- For the glamorous
Party animals with a flair for the dramatic will love the sparkle of copper stemless glasses and champagne flutes. As beautiful as they are practical, these glasses resist spills and breakage with their stemless design, all while perfectly looking the part at a long table lunch or cocktail party with friends.
Our copperware is coated with a very thin food-safe layer that seals the gleaming finish in a clear coat. This coating means there won’t be any ‘metallic’ taste imparted into your drink or bubbles, so the full flavour of the wine is always perfectly preserved.
- For the settee sippers
For some wine lovers, there’s nothing quite as nice as sitting down on the couch at the end of the day and enjoying a drop of their favourite bottle. A wine caddy is perfect for ferrying the wine and two glasses to their comfortable nook or setting up a romantic dinner for two in the back garden.
- For the entertainers
Not just for spirit drinkers, a bar cart is an excellent gift for wine drinkers, too — especially if they love to entertain and offer a full selection from the cellar. Appointed with plenty of space for different wine glasses and varietals, a bar cart lets the entertainer in your life shine at what they do best.
- For the collector
Passionate wine collectors who love to display their finds and share their collection can turn their favourite bottles into a beautiful design feature with a wall-mounted wine rack. The minimalist design creates a sculptural base and a great blank canvas to be filled with local and exotic wines.
- For the workaholic
For the person who loves a good drop but doesn’t know when to turn off, help them unwind and relax at the end of a long day with a hand-poured wine scented candle from the Blue Mountains. The soy wax creates an excellent burn and carries a delectable scent to send them to their happy place. Choose from strawberries and champagne for a light, sparkling scent or mulled wine infused with vanilla, cloves and sandalwood.
- For the cellar door specialist
Bring some of the alchemy and excitement of the winery into their home with an authentic oak wine barrel used in the production of Australian premium wines. A barrel can be used as an indoor or outdoor table, and these eye-catching pieces can even have a wine storage rack fitted inside and tucked away safely.
