A set of crystal glasses

A set of light, beautiful crystal wine glasses is always welcome. If you go for Champagne glasses, chose tulip-shaped ones, which allows to really appreciate the wine aromas. For the brand, we recommend Rona, a high-end Slovakian glassmaker.

A wine rack

Storing wine requires specific equipment, especially to keep the bottles on the side, protected from sunlight and at a constant temperature. Various wine racks are available online and are a great gift on a budget.

A refrigerated wine cellar

If you want to go a step further in wine storage for your gift, go for an electric wine fridge, which not only keeps the wine at a constant temperature, but also brings it to the ideal service temperature.

A wine aroma kit

This is the perfect gift for anyone seeking to learn wine tasting and to improve ability to recognize wine aromas. Our favorite one is Le Nez du Vin from Jean Lenoir, available in kits of 6 to 54 aromas.

A wine preservation system

Wine preservation tools enables to enjoy a glass of wine from a bottle and protecting the wine from oxidation without finishing the bottle. You have a choice between a simple vacuum pump (left on the picture) or a system such as Coravin (right) which allows pouring wine without removing the cork.

A bottle opener

Any wine lover already has one, but how about choosing a high-end opener, such as a waiter's friend imported from Laguiole – beware of fakes online – or a Peugeot Ah-so opener ?

Perfect for decoration, regional wine maps of France, Italy or any wine country are massively available only and they don’t cost much. Chose a nice frame to let the receiver hangs it directly on the wall.

A wine bottle

How about offering a bottle to a wine connaisseur ? Try to figure out what style that person likes (Full-bodied red ? Sparkling ? Sweet ?), then choose an original bottle from a region that he/she is not familiar with. Wine lovers are curious and like to be surprised.

Also try to find out whether the person likes to drink wines while they are young or on the other hand, likes to collect wines that can be kept to be enjoyed later.
