Custom Wine Gift Baskets

To make a wine gift basket extra special and to provide a personalized touch, one can opt for a custom wine gift basket. A custom wine gift basket allows the person who is gifting to choose the contents of the baskets keeping in mind the preferences of the person for whom the gift basket is intended. People can also gift wines with their own personalized wine label on the bottle to make it a memorable gift that will be treasured for a long time.

Custom wine gift baskets are the perfect gifts for wine lovers as they may also include wine glasses, decanters and mini wine cellars. These gift baskets are very popular gifts as they offer the presenter various options of wines, accessories and accompaniments which best suit their budget. Even though they are slightly more expensive than the packaged wine gift baskets, they are gifts that will surely be appreciated by the recipient.

One of the biggest advantages of having a custom wine gift basket is that one gets to choose individual bottles, boxed wine sets, or custom wine gift baskets from their favorite vineyards, and then add a special touch by adding their own little personalized gifts which maybe anything from chocolates to cheese.

Custom wine gift baskets with an assortment of the finest wines along with small knick-knacks are gifts that enliven any celebration. These gift baskets are the perfect gifts for birthdays, anniversaries and weddings. These baskets help in multiplying the festivities of the holiday season as well. They are equally delightful gifts for occasions such as Thanksgiving, Christmas or for that matter even Valentine's Day. Custom wine gift baskets bring a lot of happiness and joy to not just to the receiver of the gift but also the presenter.

Vino and Picnics

When it comes to relaxation and romance, wine and picnics are a great combination. In fact, there are wine packages built just for just an occasion.

Vino and Picnics

There are many ways to enjoy a romantic dinner with your mate. Selecting a favorite restaurant, ordering your favorite luxurious entree and a perfect bottle of wine can be a great way to spend some time with the one you love. But, what if you'd rather have some space and not be out in public? An intimate night (or day) spent in the great outdoors (or even on your living room floor) can be just as perfect as a great meal at an expensive restaurant.

Wine picnic baskets are perfect for putting together that special meal. Not only are they great to give as a gift, and a good way to get your food and beverage from one place to another, you also get to keep the basket for later use! This sort of picnic basket can even come direct to your door fully stocked with a bottle or two of wine and an assortment of special foods - like cheeses and other wine accompaniments, so that all the guesswork is taken out of your picnic.

There are also different styles of wine picnic baskets to choose from. Some of these packs are more like backpacks, made of cloth and insulated so that you can stash your favorite food goodies along with a perfectly chilled bottle of white wine in an easy to carry bag. Include your favorite stemware (or use the provided stemware, many packs come with plastic or glassware). These backpack coolers are also available in sizes that are practical for larger groups, such as a family of four, for those times when you want the whole family to enjoy your picnic.

Of course, when you think of picnic basket, most people think of the woven wooden type. There are also many different styles of traditional wine picnic baskets available. These sets can even include dinnerware, such as plates and silverware, along with a place to put your chilled wine and foodstuffs. Some include wine implements, such as corkscrews, to make your job even easier.

You needn't go to a restaurant to have a perfect romantic date. Sometimes, just sitting on the floor with a blanket spread out and a picnic basket with wine and your favorite foods is all you need to make a special night for the both of you.
