Memorable & Timeless Fine Wine Gifts When you give a fine wine gift from GiftTree, you can be assured that your gift will be remembered long after the wine has been enjoyed. Why? Well, aside from the amazing library of famous wines, it is our incredible presentations, of course! From lacquered boxes made of gorgeous burl wood to hammered copper chillers, tailored caddies filled with stainless steel tools and even caviar , our collection of luxury wine gifts in glorious presentations is something that you can be sure will leave a lasting impression. How To Shop Fine Wine Gifts There are two ways to shop our collection of fine wine gifts at GiftTree. First, you can shop fine wine gifts by the presentation that you want your wine to arrive in. Whether it be a vase or a gift set with Riedel glasses, or a gorgeous lacquered gift box made of burl wood and tied with ribbon, just click on the presentation that you want to start with. You'll be taken to a page that shows all the wines that are available to come inside that presentation. The other way to shop our luxury wine gifts online is by starting with the wine that you want to give. When you click on the wine brand that you want to send to your recipient, you will be taken to a page that shows all the ways this bottle of wine can be presented. We have many different vintages available for each wine, so make sure you check those tasting notes! Those tasting notes will explain the conditions of that year and AVA, as well as the wine score, the aromas and flavors in that vintage. For example, let's say you clicked on Opus One , since that's the wine you want to give. You will see that you can select from different vintages, and as you scroll down the page, you can see all the different ways that Opus One can be given as a gift. Pretty amazing, right? Our favorite presentation for Opus One is definitely the lacquered, handcrafted burl wood box. Read on for an explanation on the unique characteristics of burl wood! Burl Wood - As Unique As a Fingerprint What is burl wood, you ask? Well, burl wood, or as it's known in the UK as burr, is a knot in a tree: a growth on the trunk that grows in a rounded shape. Inside this knot, known as the burl, the grain of the wood grows and forms into a unique pattern. When these knots are removed from the tree (which is good for the tree!) and cut open, gorgeous grain patterns that are completely unique and individual to that burl are revealed. Then, the wood is shaved and shaped, cut into a beautiful wine box, lined with velvet and lacquered with resin for a beautiful, shiny gift box. The amazing thing to remember about burl wood is that no two pieces are the same - just the same as a fingerprint or a snowflake. Isn't that cool? That is why GiftTree offers burl wood boxes, because they are such a unique and interesting addition to an already impressive bottle of wine. Wine Chillers 101 Another option to present a bottle of wine inside is a chiller. GiftTree offers a few different styles and types. For the most part, white wine or Champagne is the best option to give as a gift inside a chiller, but many people don't realize that red wine is actually supposed to be enjoyed at slighty below room temperature, so a chiller makes a good presentation for red wine, as well.
