California Wine Gifts

Here are several California wine gifts for you to choose from.

California is the largest wine producing state in our nation and produces some of the best wine in the world.

Nearly every county in California contains a wine growing region. A wine gift from California is a wonderful idea.

An easy and obvious choice is to buy California wine. A bottle or bottles of wine from one of California’s beautiful wine regions will make an excellent gift.

Here are three online wine retailers we highly recommend.

Their sales are not limited to just California wines, but you will find excellent California wines on their sites.

Wine.Com

Wine.Com has a very easy to use and easy to navigate website. They offer excellent customer service and have been voted the #1 online wine store by Internet Retailer magazine for the past 4 years.

At Wine.Com you can shop by price, type, region, or rating. Their ratings include those by The Wine Spectator and The Wine Advocate. We are especially intrigued by their 90+ point wines for under $20 category.

My Wines Direct

My Wines Direct is different and special. They feature small “undiscovered vineyards and expertly screened wines”. Their bottles are sold in units of 6 only so their shipping is FREE.

Each wine is described in detail on their site and their prices are extremely reasonable. My Wines Direct is definitely worth a visit. It’s such a pleasure to explore these off the beaten path wineries.

Wine Express

Wine Express is the sister site of the well-respected Wine Enthusiast. Here you can shop by wine type, grape or region.

They also offer a customer review section so you can read other people’s observations about particular bottles. The most fun and interesting portion of their website is their virtual wine tastings.

If you like the idea of a bottle of wine but would prefer something that really says “celebration”, how about a bottle of California sparkling wine.

If this sounds like a good idea 1 800 4 Champagne is the place for you to start.

They offer same and next day delivery of your California sparkling wine gift, wrapped and delivered with a personal message at no extra charge. They ship to all 50 of the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and Western Europe.

And, for future reference, they also offer French champagne.

You can also find California sparkling wine at Wine.Com and Wine Express.

With the exception of 1-800-4Champagne, the online retailers above do not ship wine outside of the United states. Learn more about wine shipping here.

An excellent California wine gifts choice is membership in a wine club. Wine club membership offers so many options.

One of our favorite wine gifts from California is a gift basket containing California wines.

You will find dozens of gift basket companies to choose from offering a wide range of basket contents at all different prices. There is sure to be a basket just right for your gift recipient.

A very practical option is a wine gift certificate. While not as personal, many people prefer to choose their own wine and/or wine gifts.
