Whether you’re looking for a $25 reusable wine tumbler to bring on camping trips or want to splash out on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to wine country, we’ve got you covered. There’s a little bit of everything in this list of gifts for wine lovers, including accessories (champagne sabres, anyone?), a wine club membership (that our editor in chief personally recommended), as well as trips (for the well-traveled wine lover who already has everything).
Read on to see what else made our highly curated list of wine gifts.

2. Yeti Rambler 10 oz. Wine Tumbler
Buy now: $25, yeti.com; amazon.com
As more resorts go plastic-free, reusable cups are becoming an essential packing item for ecoconscious wine lovers. We love the Yeti Rambler wine tumbler for camping trips, boozy picnics, and spontaneous sunset viewing excursions because the double-wall vacuum insulation keeps white wines cool and the MagSlider lid keeps all liquids from spilling out. These tumblers come in eight different colors.

4. La Tienda Porrón Wine Pitcher
Buy now: $30 (was $43), amazon.com
Every wine lover should have one of these wine pitchers from Spain. For tamer dinner parties, you can use it as a decanter. But if you want to kick it up a notch, use it as the Spanish traditionally do and pour wine from its spout directly into your mouth.

5. Caviar, champagne, and Jenni Kayne pop-up in Napa
Book now: from $275 per person, aubergeresorts.com
Planning a weekend getaway at Solage, Auberge Resorts Collection in Napa wine country alone would be a terrific gift this December. But you may also want to consider booking an afternoon in one of the resort’s poolside cabanas—even though it probably won’t be warm enough to swim. From December 1 to 30, 2022, each cabana will be transformed into a cozy champagne and caviar lounge decorated by Jenni Kayne—the California brand known for its cashmere sweaters. While you sip on sparkling wines from Schramsberg Vineyards and taste caviar from chef Thomas Keller’s newly opened Regiis Ova Caviar lounge in Yountville, you’ll stay warm courtesy of warm throws and sheepskin seat covers from the Jenni Kayne Home line.

6. Boards & Co. Cheese Board Kits
Buy now: from $85, shopboardsandco.com
It is a truth universally acknowledged that wine lovers are usually cheese devotees, too. Boards & Co.’s personality-based cheese board kits (including the Wanderlust, the Artist, the Dare-Devil, to name a few) come with everything you’d need to build a perfect board. Of course, there’s the carefully curated selection of cheeses and various accouterments, as well as the tools you’d need to spread your cheese or drizzle your honey. But the real surprise is the cardboard packaging, which has pop-outs that turn into different accessories: coasters, tags to note which wineglass is yours (each representing a different cheese), and signs to denote each cheese on your board.
The kits also come with information about how cheese is made, how to build the perfect cheese board, and what kind of wines, beers, or ciders to drink with each of your specific cheeses. For a small up charge, you can even order a wine pairing with the kit online.

Gone are the days of dragging bulky plastic coolers on hikes and picnics. This cooler backpack keeps your hands free and comes in six different colors, including seafoam, seen here. The insulated main compartment can hold up to three bottles of wine, or two bottles of wine and eight cans. It also has a rear zippered accessory pocket to hold things you don’t want to be cold, like your phone.

8. Laguiole en Aubrac Teak Corkscrew
Buy now: $160, amazon.com
You might not buy yourself a $160 corkscrew, but that’s why this makes such a great gift. A favorite of sommeliers, this handmade corkscrew from the French brand Laguiole en Aubrac is crafted with ultra-strong Sandvik brushed stainless steel and teak burl wood and comes packaged in a French oak gift box. Just be sure to pack it in your checked bag so it doesn’t get confiscated by TSA.

Shopping for wine lovers who are also outdoorsy? Pick up one of these insulated, stainless steel containers from Hydro Flask. Not only does it hold an entire bottle of wine but it also allows you to bring your favorite drink to places like the beach and many National Park Service sites that ban glass containers. It features double-wall vacuum insulation that will keep your rosés and whites cool and your reds at room temperature for hours.
![Stainless steel wine sabre](https://afar.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/ab3f77a/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1875x1250+0+0/resize/1440x960!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fafar-media-production-web.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2Fcc%2F7a%2Fd5a148cc413dcb30b294a79fe9b0%2Foriginal-wine14.jpg)

10. Georg Jensen Indulgence Champagne Sabre
Buy now: $169, georgjensen.com; saksfifthavenue.com
Sure, you can saber open a bottle of bubbly with any old chef’s knife in your kitchen. But if you’re buying a gift for someone who loves to entertain, this stainless steel number from Danish design company Georg Jensen is meant for big celebrations. To use it correctly, hold the bottle at a 20-degree angle (wearing gloves and eye protection, ideally) and slide the blunt side of the sabre along the seam of the bottle toward its neck. When the blade hits the lip, the force will break the glass and send the cork shooting into the distance.

The debut book from Aldo Sohm, Le Bernardin’s longtime wine director and sommelier, is a great gift for wine fans who want to take their knowledge to the next level.
