How to Gift Wine That Actually Feels Thoughtful (Not Last-Minute)

There’s a reason wine remains one of the most-loved gifts: it’s timeless, delicious, and instantly elevates any occasion. But not all wine gifts are created equal. A good wine gift feels thoughtful — not like something grabbed from a bottle shop on the way.

At Vintrepid, we make it easy to give better wine, with curated packs featuring small-batch French producers, handpicked by a sommelier and shipped direct from our cellar to theirs.

🍷 Why Wine Makes the Perfect Gift

Wine is equal parts celebration and comfort. Whether it's for a birthday, anniversary, corporate thank-you, or just to say "thinking of you," a well-chosen bottle shows you care. Plus, our packs are beautifully boxed and can be paired with a handwritten note.

🎁 One-Off Wine Boxes for Every Occasion

Looking for a no-commitment gift? Our curated one-off boxes are perfect for first-timers or occasional gifting. Choose from:

• The Discovery Pack — A mix of different wines for the curious drinker
• The House Wine Box — Six bottles of everyday deliciousness
• Regional Collections — Burgundy, Beaujolais, Loire and more

Each box contains wines sourced directly from family-run domaines, many of which are organically farmed and rarely seen outside France.

💌 Gift Subscriptions

For something with a little more staying power, our gift subscriptions deliver a curated box of French wine every quarter. You can prepay for 3, 6 or 12 months — and they can pause or change the wines anytime.

💳 Wine Gift Cards

Not sure what they like? A digital gift card lets them choose their own adventure. Available from $50 to $500.

📝 Add a Personal Touch

Every gift box comes with the option to add a personal message, handwritten on a Vintrepid note card. Want to include a company logo for a corporate gift? Just let us know.
