Best Wine Gifts for 2025 (Curated by a Wine Expert)
Need a thoughtful gift for the wine lover in your life? Whether it’s your partner, a friend who always hosts, or the family member who swirls before sipping, the best wine gifts go beyond the bottle.
As a winemaker-turned-wine-concierge, I’ve curated my favorite wine gifts for 2025 — a mix of luxury picks, small treasures, and practical tools that elevate any wine experience.
1. A Beautiful Wine Fridge
Well, obviously they should get a wine fridge — right? It’s the ultimate “I actually thought this through” kind of gift. Not only does it look impressive, but it keeps every bottle at the perfect serving and storage temperature (because that nice cabernet deserves better than the kitchen counter).
Top pick:
Allavino Reserva Series Dual Zone Wine Refrigerator —
Ideal for anyone who wants restaurant-quality storage without the sommelier salary.
Other great options:
Compact models from Whynter and Wine Enthusiast for smaller spaces — same sophistication, just a little less square footage.
Check out the collections from Whynter, Wine Enthusiast, and our Small Wine Fridges storing 25-50 bottles.
2. Wine Preservation Systems
Keep opened bottles fresh for days — or even weeks.
Ideas:
- Argon gas preservation systems (like Coravin or Repour)
- Vacuum stoppers for casual use
-
Why it’s great:
It takes the pressure off finishing a bottle and keeps every pour tasting its best.
3. Host Essentials
Thoughtful pieces that make entertaining effortless.
Gift ideas:
- Elegant wine decanter
- Insulated ice bucket or bottle chiller
- Oversized board for charcuterie or cheese pairings
- Linen wine bags for gifting bottles beautifully
- Cheese knife set
- Beverage Centers - go all out and get them a lovey dual purpose storage for wine and their other favorite beverage- check them out here!
4. For the Collector
