5 Great Wine Gift Ideas for the Last-Minute Shopper

1) Just a Glass, Please!

After the Nespresso coffee machine, meet the D-Vine. Much like Nespresso, the D-Vine uses pods that are inserted into the machine. It offers a new way to enjoy wine without opening a whole bottle for just a small glass. It's also a great way to offer a variety of wines to your guests. Plus, with its thoughtfully designed appearance, the D-Vine can double as a stylish kitchen accessory!

2) Step into the Shoes of a Winemaker!

If you have board game enthusiasts among your friends and family, consider surprising them with Vign’en jeu, a winemaking-themed game created by Gilles Bourjade in 2007. The game allows players to take on the role of a winemaker for a few hours and manage a vineyard through an entire vintage. No prior knowledge is needed, as no questions are asked. However, you'll need strategic skills to make your vineyard thrive!

3) Trivia with a Side of Cheese and Wine!

Stick with the board game theme with the Trivial Pursuit Wine Edition. The concept remains the same as the classic version: a pie, a pair of dice, and questions categorized into different topics. However, instead of "sports," "geography," or "entertainment," you'll find categories like "Wine Geography," "The Crus," and "Gourmet Pairings."

4) A Sophisticated Bottle of Champagne

Personalized Champagne Bedel Gift Box

An elegant, customizable bottle in a stylish case makes for a lovely gift package. But it's what's inside that counts: a bottle with your names, two flutes, and a champagne stopper. Perfect for an aperitif, this champagne will elevate your romantic evenings.

Find this gift box at Avenue des Vins

5) A Fun iPhone Case

Transparent and a bit kitschy, this iPhone case has character! A charming and original gift that is sure to bring a smile to its recipient… and might even inspire them to pour themselves a glass of wine!
