Wine makes a wonderful gift for the holidays. The wine choice can be a thoughtful gesture that pairs to the gift recipients liking or it can be a reserve bottle on the ready for those unexpected visitors.

Here are few simple ideas of how to turn your bottle of wine into a gift:

• Wrap it in a kitchen towel or tea towel, roll is up and put a bow around the bottle neck.
• Put an "ugly" sweater on the wine bottle and top it off with a Santa hat.
• Here's an easy one - hang an ornament on the bottle.

If you are feeling crafty, you can make your wine bottle into a gnome. You can get a pair of socks that have the fuzzy material on the inside, grab some faux fur and a round wooden ball or a small round ornament. Put the sock on the top of the bottle and hot glue the faux fur under the sock and glue the ball or ornament as a nose. So festive to display and delicious to drink.

If you are not feeling crafty, head to the gift basket section on SpiritsofNorwayVineyard.com and look for our lovely gift boxes and wine merchandise. Let us do the creative work for you and purchase one of our Wisconsin Local Gift Boxes where everything in it is locally made and comes in a hand-crafted cheese box. Our Local Gift Boxes are a one-of-a-kind gift that everyone will love. The lid turns into a decorative tray. Perfect for serving our signature Cabernet cheddar cheese with crackers!

With over 80 different wines in the Spirits of Norway Vineyard’s comprehensive portfolio there are so many wonderful options for giving and the online store makes shopping easy and stress free.

Happy Holidays!
