Wine Gift For Holiday Gift Giving

Throughout human history, wine has been a celebratory drink savored in both social and religious occasions and traditions. For thousands of years wine has been enjoyed for pleasure, celebration, and religious purposes. Wine was historically thought to have remedial attributes and red wine is confirmed to be good for heart health. Although not all civilizations consumed wine for leisure, almost every world culture has a wine history whether used as drink or medicine. In my life, wine is appropriate for festivity, fun, and now and then, as medicine. This fact alone makes wine the perfect gift for any gathering. Whenever I need a gift when visiting a friend’s home, as a housewarming gift, or in order to say “thank you,” wine is my first choice. Wine is not only a sophisticated gift, but it’s easy to pair with appetizers, main dishes, and desserts. Enjoyed in high class society, wine pairings and tastings are a great way to network and mingle with friends. What a great chance to socialize and learn a thing or two as well!

Recently, I found myself in charge of organizing a fairly large social event. In all the confusion of planning and preparations, I forgot to notify one of the event sponsors of a change in date. The day before the event, we discovered the mistake when I answered a phone call from the sponsor. As a result of the miscommunication, they were unable to participate in the event and had blocked time out of their schedule in vain. My immediate response in apology was to send the sponsor a wine and cheese basket from Baskets By Rita. For $150 I was able to send them a basket packed with a selection of red and white wines, cookies, an assortment of cheeses, smoked salmon, gourmet crackers, summer sausage, olives, dried fruits, caramel corn, candy, snack mix, fine chocolates, mixed nuts, and more. I believed that this would be a gift that could be shared among all of their employees and I hoped it would convey my apologies for the misunderstanding. I would endorse a Baskets By Rita wine basket for any occasion for which wine is practical. Whether you need to say thank you, send a housewarming gift, apologize, or present a gift when visiting a friend, Baskets By Rita has the ideal wine basket which include Vineyard Select Wine Gift Basket for the occasion. For the wine connoisseur, we offer the choice of BV or Rodney Strong wine assortments along with assorted cookies, smoked Gouda cheese, smoked salmon, wine cheese, gourmet crackers, beef summer sausage, olives, dried fruit, caramel corn, candy, cheese snack mix, fine chocolates, gourmet mixed nuts,and more. The wine basket is a great gift for a group to share. The BV selection includes Cabernet, Merlot, and Chardonnay wines. The Rodney Strong selection includes Chardonnay, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Visit their red wine basket page to see their many varieties and options.
