Whether you’re a seasoned sommelier or a casual wine enthusiast, discover thoughtful and tasteful options that will leave a lasting impression.Â
- Personalised Wine Glass – this is inexpensive and a cute gift especially if the person’s name is one that’s not common and can be found in every necklace and bracelet. It’s very thoughtful and trust me they’ll feel so special about it.
- Portable electric wine set – this retails for R475 on Takealot. Perfect for a growing enthusiast who’s trying to build their wine collection and tool set.Â
- Wooden cheese board – you’d score big brownie points if you bought these as a gift cause they are the perfect hosting accessory. Please remember to get the round wooden boards, we’re all about aesthetics in this house.Â
- Decanter – you can’t go wrong with a decanter because it looks like glass art on its own. Make sure to do something research on the type of decanter your loved one would appreciate based on the type of wine they drink.Â
- A vacuum pump wine stopper – these tools are so underrated but so essential for saving the flavour of leftover wine. It keeps it airtight and preserves its freshness for whenever you want to indulge again.Â
