It’s that time when we look back at our bestsellers for the year and give you wine gift basket ideas for 2023. Our wine hampers are great presents for any occasion and make the top of our list for good reason. So, without further ado, here are our top picks:
Wine & Cheese Feast
Starting off with a stonker right off the bat. These wine hampers are perennial delights and contain family favourites like Snowdonia Red Leicester with Chillies & Crushed Pepper Waxed Truckle and Cottage Delight Farmhouse Pickle and Olives Et Al Harissa Nuts Tumbled with Spices. They’re sure to delight. Plus, they pair great with the Cottage Delight Spicy Mango and Ginger Chutney, Butter Shortbread, Duc d’O Belgian Milk Chocolate Flaked Truffles, Borders Dark Chocolate Ginger Biscuits, Grandma Wilds Butterscotch Cookies, Peters Yard Smoked Chilli Sourdough Flatbreads, Baronie Italian Orange Chocolate Sticks and Olive & Sesame Savoury Mini Breadsticks. And that’s not all that’s hidden in this basket of delights, either.
The Ruby Red Wine Hamper
This is one of our wine hampers where the vintage is the star of the show. The Luis Felipe Edwards Lot 18 Merlot from Chile won Silver at the Decanter World Wine Awards 2009. And it truly has an award-winning flavour. Plus, the treats include Elizabeth Shaw Chocolate Salted Caramel Biscuits, Brown Bag Crisps, Buchanan’s Chocolate Raspberry Caramels, Joe & Sephs Cosmopolitan Popcorn, Captain Tiptoes Dry Roasted Peanuts and the stunning Walkers Milk, White & Dark Chocolate Classics. Finally, when you finish everything, the oval seagrass and wood basket is great household storage. That makes it an incredible eco-friendly gift.
The Grande
What a looker! This incredible bestseller appeals to people who want variety. You’ll love the four vintages. First, there is the Torres Coronas Tempranillo Catalunya from Spain. Next, we twin it with the Kleine Zalze Bush Vines Chenin Blanc from South Africa. Then, if you like dry wines, try the Veramonte Sauvignon Blanc Reserva from Chile or hit up the Crusan Grenache-Merlot, Pays d’Oc from France for a full-bodied experience. We pair it with treats like Baronie Dark Chocolate Mint Sticks with Pure Peppermint Filling, Peters Yard Fig & Spelt Sourdough Crackers, Edinburgh Preserves Wild Boar Pâté, Grandma Wilds Butterscotch Cookies, Borders Lemon Drizzle Melts, Captain Tiptoes Dry Roasted Peanuts, Joe & Seph’s Cosmopolitan Popcorn in Caramel, Cranberry, Orange, Lime, Vodka & Triple Sec and so much more.
The Amethyst
This purple fantasy contains incredible treats. Try the Olives Et Al Olives Richly Dark Kalamata Olives and Cottage Delight Cheese Makers Pickle for savouries. Plus, there are Olive & Sesame Savoury Mini Breadsticks to add a crunch. Next, get sweet with Buchanan’s Chocolate Eclairs. Or you could choose these Elizabeth Shaw Raisin & Hazelnut Biscuits. There’s also Walkers Milk Chocolate Dessert Collection, The Wooden Spoon Plum, Pear & Apple Jam and much more. We pair it with a rich merlot from Berri Estates in South-Eastern Australia. Lastly, it’s all finished with a hand-tied luxury ribbon in a handmade wicker basket that works great for kitchen or bathroom storage once the treats have gone.
