The Wine Connoisseur - Christmas Gift Guide

The wine connoisseur is not necessarily the person who can taste the hints of raspberry and fresh mint with the subtle pepper undertones. But, they likely know what wine they like, what wine goes well with which main, and what regions produce a superior vintage. Equally, they could just be what must constitute the majority of our population these days; a person who unwinds with a glass of wine after a stressful day at work. Luckily, you do not have to be a wine connoisseur yourself to buy for one.  Here are our best gift ideas for people who you know just one thing about - and that is that they absolutely adore a glass of wine...or two.   

Their Favourite Wine Complete with Wine Rack

  A thoughtful gift and a practical one too! Combine six bottles of their favourite wine with a sexy wine rack. This example from Hahn is ideal for a simple but striking wine stand and with six bottles of their favourite tipple they are sure to enjoy it.     

Set of Two Dartington Crystal Wine Glasses 

  The perfect bottle of wine needs the perfect glass to accompany it. These are made by Dartington Crystal who have been handcrafting products in Devon since 1967. The Swarovski elements make these glasses that little bit extra special. The presentation box makes then the ideal gift. Add a quality bottle of wine for a well-rounded gift for any wine lover.     

Wine Aerator Decanter 

  Really connecting with their wine connoisseur credentials, an aerator decanter takes wine tasting to the next level. This innovative design helps oxygenate and aerate wine as it is poured into the decanter and then again into the glass. The air is said to release more of the flavour of the wine and create a more aromatic experience.   

A Super Stylish Wine Cooler 

  Robert Welch have designed a stylish wine cooler with optimal room for surrounding the bottle with sufficient ice. Their award-winning products are industry leaders. This wine cooler is aesthetically pleasing and functional. A beautifully polished surface and contouring shape manipulates the light making it a striking centrepiece. It also comes gift boxed. 

Contemporary Wine Glasses 

Step away from tradition and expand their wine glass collection with a new design. We have a huge collection of glasses that offer different designs. These SoHo wine glasses are handcrafted in the UK by Anton Studio Designs. The silver band gives them a striking contrast and a modern feel. 

Glass Twister Wine Aerator 

  A unique 3 phase process to ensure wine bursts with flavour and scent. The aerating process has been taken to the next level with this twister aerator which instantly adds oxygen to the wine without waiting for it to breathe for long periods. It includes a stainless steel sediment filter, glass twister aerator, glass aerator adapter for decanters with different spouts, and a stainless steel storage and drying stand.  The Special Royal Scot Crystal Set    A lavish present for somebody very special. Six Royal Scot crystal large wine glasses make an ideal gift for a family or someone who you know enjoys entertaining. They come in a beautiful presentation box. High-quality crystal glassware with a textured pattern and sturdy design.  Those are a few ideas of what you can buy a wine connoisseur. Ultimately, they will appreciate a bottle of wine if you are not sure what to get them. Even if you don't quite nail their favourite grape, you might open their world to new flavours and even a new favourite!
