Step 1
Visit your local wine shop to view a selection of red wine gift baskets. This is a good way to get firsthand advice from an experienced wine merchant, especially if you're not a wine expert and you plan to buy a gift basket for a real connoisseur.
-
Step 2
Buy a red wine gift basket that includes sturdy wine glasses. If the recipient of the gift basket is just getting into wine, he may not have the necessary wares to fully enjoy the experience. Using the right wine glasses improves the experience of tasting wine and will make him at least look like a connoisseur.
-
Step 3
Choose a red wine gift basket with multiple varieties of wine. This may help a new wine drinker identify her favorite varietal or region.
-
Step 4
Visit an online retailer for wine and wine gift baskets. This is a convenient way to browse and is often less expensive than shopping at a traditional wine shop, making it a good alternative for busy people.
-
Step 5
Order a red wine gift basket that includes select cheeses and/or meats. Again, for new wine drinkers, there may still be some mystery involved in how to pair wine and food properly. Proper food pairing can add an extra dimension of enjoyment.
-
Step 6
Include a membership to a "wine of the month" club in your gift basket. If the idea is to spark a love of wine in the recipient, there are few better ways to accomplish this than by exposing him to as many wines and food combinations as possible.
-
Step 7
Have the red wine gift basket delivered to the recipients home or office for special occasions. Wine gift baskets are sophisticated and elegant gifts that will make the recipients feel very appreciated indeed.
