The Best Mixed Red & White Wine Gifts & Gift Ideas

Wine Tasting Party Kit with Wine Gift Review

$99.00 at Gold Medal Wine Club

Gold Medal Wine Club is more than just a wine club, it's a great resource for wine gifts, especially for California wine gifts. One of our favorite gifts they offer is their Wine Party Tasting Kit. You may have seen similar versions of this kit, but this one is better for two key reasons. First, it includes the aroma wheels helping you to better learn about the wines you're blind tasting. Second, it includes the wine!! In this gift you'll get four different award-winning California wines to try blind. The wines come from the Gold Medal Wine Club's Gold Series Wine Club — one of the most popular wine clubs on our site (it makes a great gift, too). In the Mixed Red & White Tasting Party, the wines are a selection Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Zinfandel or Proprietary Blends.

This Kit is also available in red wine only ($119.95) and white wine only ($99.95).

This Wine Tasting Party Kit includes:

• Four different bottles of our award-winning Gold Series wines (two red and two white varietals).
• An 80 page illustrated book that explains all the details of hosting your own wine tasting
• 4 Tasting Notepads
• 4 Cloth Wine Bags
• 4 Tags to label the Wine bottles when you are doing your tasting
• 1 Wine and Cheese Wheel that helps you pair delicious wine and cheese combinations
• 1 Wine Aroma Wheel that will help you identify and describe wines in a more detailed way

Designed especially for wine connoisseurs and wine lovers who love to throw a party and share great wines. This complete kit is a great gift. Forget about having to spend time making checklists of what you need and what you don?t. Dan Amatuzzi?s "How to Host a Wine Tasting Party" contains everything you?ll need to host a wine tasting in your own home.

A wine tasting party is fun and educational for everyone from novices to sophisticated wine drinkers. Within this all-inclusive kit are the elements to be a terrific host, including cloth wine bottle covers, tasting score pads, a cheat sheet, glass markers, and an entertaining book that introduces you to the ins and outs of tasting wine in a comfortable, festive, social setting your own home.

Prefer just red or white wine?

No problem! This kit comes in red wine only ($119.95) and white wine only ($99.95), too!

Wine Down Box Gift Review

$70.00 at Wine Down Box

Wine pairings are notoriously tricky, but when the food and wine are paired perfectly, something magical happens. It doesn’t hurt when the foods you’ve paired are classic cheese and charcuterie! What we especially love, in addition to artisanal cheese and salami, is the quality of the wines. With a gift box like this you might be concerned that it’s just a gimmick, but in this case, these are carefully selected goods worth every penny.

We’ve received a number of shipments from Wine Down Box and we’ve been delighted with each and every one of them. As long as you’re not buying for a vegetarian (or vegan), this is a great gift for most wine lovers.

California Wine Duo in a Gift Box Gift Review

$44.99 at Gold Medal Wine Club

Finding a high-quality wine gift that won’t break the bank can be a challenge.

This duo of California wine is actually just a one-time shipment from an outstanding monthly wine club, the Gold Series of Gold Medal Wine Club. We’ve received many shipments of wine from this company over the years and we are confident that for the money you can’t give a better one-time wine gift than this duo with the upgraded gift box.

Cape Cod Luxury Wine Basket Gift Review

$569.95 at GiftTree.com

In general we're a fan of wine gift baskets that have high-quality wines with designated regions and vineyards, and where the wines aren't brands at factory-style wineries, but rather actual working wineries operating under their own name. Gift Tree has some of the former, but plenty of options with the latter — like this gift basket which comes with Opus One Overture (an acclaimed wine) and two other excellent wines. But what Gift Tree often gets right is the other goodies in the basket — grilled antipasti, habanero pepper jelly, Ghirardelli and Godiva chocolates, and more.

Bonus: If Opus One Overture doesn't turn your crank, you can pick from a huge number of other ultra-premium well-known wines to feature in your personalized gift basket.

Gift Details

The Opus One Overture will be presented with Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Karia Chardonnay and Willamette Valley Vineyards Founders' Reserve Pinot Noir. The elegant keepsake container offers grilled vegetable antipasti, habanero pepper jelly, sweet and savory gourmet popcorn, Ghirardelli and Godiva luxury chocolates, strawberry pome frais and much more.

About Opus One Overture NV

• In keeping with the tradition of many great Bordeaux estates, Opus One produces a fine second wine called Overture. When these wine lots are afforded additional time in barrel, in combination with the added flexibility of blending across multiple vintages, the final wine achieves a remarkable elegance and complexity that represents a superb expression of our estate. This is Overture.
• Tasting Notes: Overture displays a vibrant garnet color with expressive aromas of fresh red fruit. Notes of bright cherry and red currant are underpinned by more earthy tones of ground cocoa, cedar and vanilla. Extended barrel aging gives the wine an elegant texture accentuated by round tannins and a soft mouthfeel.
• Blend: 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc, 8% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot, 2% Malbec.
• Cellaring: Enjoy upon release, or cellar through 2025.

Organic Wine Duo Wine Gift Crate Gift Review

$54.95 at GiftTree.com

Organic wine hasn't yet developed as a sought-after item in the gifting marketplace, so pickings are slim if you're on the hunt for a wine gift for your favorite earth-friendly or pesticide-conscious wine-lover.

In this elegant gift, Bonterra presents their toasty chardonnay and bold, rich cabernet sauvignon. One bottle each of Bonterra Chardonnay, and Bonterra Cabernet Sauvignon.
