So, join us as we reveal the best wine gift baskets for everyone on your list. 'Cheers' is right.

Best of the Old World Bundle

We're gonna go ahead and spoil the rest of this article: It's all baskets that are wine + pairing. Not a bad thing! Preferred by many. But if you've got a serious oenophile on your hands—a real moonlight sommelier type—they care about the wine. First Leaf is where we go for wine-snob bundles. This one in particular gives you some white, red, and bubbly from three of Europe's traditional wine regions. It's the perfect gift for those who already know their shit.

Picnic Basket Gift with Wine

Wine, and everything that goes with it, is meant to be consumed outdoors with people they love. If the weather is nice enough, they can immediately take this basket to the park. If not, they can eat and drink inside now, and they'll have the easy-carry wicker basket for when they organize their own picnics going forward.

Gourmet Cheese Gift with Wine

Sure, it's only one Pinot Noir paired with a suite of cheeses. But for your cheese-loving hobbyist sommelier, that is the perfect pairing.

Champagne & Truffles Gift Basket - Prosecco

But of course Champagne runs pricey. (And snobs will tell you there's better stuff out there besides Veuve.) To avoid all that, go with a cheaper, less fussy Prosecco gift basket. This one still hits on the sweet treats.

Classic Red Wine Gift Basket

To red drinkers, nothing can quite one-up a gift basket of vin rouge and savory bites. The pairing of wine and gourmet snacks inside this red box is curated for a homey night by the fireplace. Sip some rich Italian red, then taste the smoked gouda and flatbread crackers to top it off.

Wine Duo Italian Gift Basket

If they won't drink anything but the finest wines from Italy (fair), they will love this exquisite box. It comes with a bottle of red and a bottle of white as well as everything they need to make a delicious dinner. Think pork salami, artisan pasta, traditional pasta sauce, and biscotti for dessert. Not to mention, smoked Gouda, crackers, and cheese straws are tossed in, too, in case they're still hungry after dinner.

Brut Strength Champagne Crate

The technique is generally attributed to Napoleon and associated post-revolution French nobles, sabrage is the coolest traditional way to pop a bottle. This gift box gives them their very own champagne saber. (Don't let them watch Emily in Paris S2 Ep8.)

Vine Voyage

Sometimes, it’s better to not get too extra with gifting. For those who only want to drink wine and nothing else—what more could you ask for?—this bundle has eight exquisite varietals that'll journey whoever's lucky enough to receive them through vineyards in Italy or countryside in France, sipping bold montepulciano, classic bordeaux, flavorful verdicchio, and more unique-tasting vino as well during that day-trip.

Meat, Cheese, and Wine Gift Box

A gift basket with basically a full-course meal is enough to satisfy a date night dinner, served with royal crest red or pinot noir. This assortment includes artisan cheese like Monterey Jack and salami and summer sausages. If that’s not enough flavor, how about some honey hot mustard and pepper onion relish for the spice?

Wine and Gourmet Snack Pack

Raise a glass—sorry, a bottle. Oh wait, sorry, a can—of sparkling sauvignon blanc, rosé, and zinfandel wine to help wash down all the small but delectable treats from the basket. Berries, apricots, and any small bites that won't completely fill up a stomach. Yum.

There's actually no wine in this basket. But it does have the drinking accessories and vessels every oenophile needs: A wine carafe and cool glass.
