Thoughtful Wine Gifts With Wine Gift Cards

People love to give alcohol as a gift

People love to give alcohol as a gift. Not only is it easy and "safe" because almost everybody loves to enjoy a glass of wine, but it's also a good way to be just a little bit personal with the gift. You can put a lot of thought and yourself into it or just give wine gift cards in the spirit of encouraging the recipient to relax. In either circumstance you know the person is going to end up drinking some wine, probably with a friend or loved-one, and having a good experience. But if you really want to put some thought into it, you should consider wine purchase donations and other options that take advantage of the thing that makes wine such a good gift: it lends itself to a social experience.

Think about the best meals of your life, your favorite experiences, and the strongest memories you have. Most of the moments you're remembering probably involve another person. We are social animals, and most of us enjoy that which we can share most of all, as long as we're sharing it with the right person. The simple conclusion to draw from this is that wine is best when it's shared. And of course, anecdotal evidence supports this argument. Wine makes a romantic dinner, a lazy afternoon lunch with friends, tapas on vacation in Spain, and celebrating a successful deal at work better, and the people with whom you drink that wine in turn make it more memorable.

So when you're thinking about wine gifts, the first steps to take are those that encourage the recipient to enjoy it socially, in the company of those he or she enjoys. This could mean something as simple as being sure that you bring good wine that is appropriate and compliments food you're going to have at a meal with friends, to create a scenario where everyone will drink that wine in the company of those at the gathering. Or you could take it a little further and put together a wine gift basket clearly designed for two or three people based on the number of bottles of wine and complimentary food it contains.

The next step is to extend the enjoyment of the wine beyond just its tasting and consumption. Many people enjoy knowing more about their wine, including where the grapes were grown, how they were processed and by whom, and how the proceeds of the bottles purchased get distributed to these parties. Wine gifts cards from charity wine companies included in a wine gift package make it easier for the recipient to get this kind of information and engage in a charitable experience when they purchase their wine. It extends the experience of wine to include its purchase, making the entire process deeper and more complex.

The point is that giving the gift of wine, with all its heritage and intricacy, is always a good idea. But going beyond handing someone a bottle to including wine gift cards and other items that show thought and improve the social experience of having, opening, and enjoying the wine makes the gift you're giving even better, more personal, and ultimately a better way to focus what wine is for people.
