There are four days left until Christmas, and if you are like most people, you are stressing over what to buy the hardest people on your list, or your entire list! Luckily WineCollective has some friends that continually impress us with their ability to find unique gift giving and holiday entertaining ideas.
We may be a little biased, but we think a WineCollective Holiday Package is the perfect gift to give and receive! You can purchase 2, 3, or 6 months of our carefully curated selections for the wine lover in your life, up until December 31st (if you need a last minute/belated gift). When you think that this couldn’t get any better, each Holiday Package comes with a year’s subscription to Wine Access magazine!
Toque Girls recently posted an interview with Shelley Boettcher, executive editor of Wine Access, giving her top toasting picks for the Holidays in “A Drink List for the Holidays“. The WineCollective staff are particularly fond of the Waterbrook Melange Noir.
Tom Firth of Wine Access suggests a diversion from grapes to grains, Samichlaus beer. Yes, he does mention that it sounds like “Santa Claus”, that is because it means Santa Claus in Austrian. This post has inspired the perfect gift for my dad’s stocking; a gift box set of Samichlaus is available at Willow Park.
Avenue Magazine gives us lists of ideas for everyone on our lists: kids, dads, the women in your life, and foodies. Our favourite list, considering mall crowds are frightening, is their “No Fuss Online Gift Ideas“, and yes, we are on it!
If you are looking for something special for a lady, I recommend Sister’s Home boutique in Bridgeland.
They have the most amazing assortment of jewellery, bags, accessories and unique wardrobe enhancers. You can contact them to plan your own shopping party. Wine, friends and shopping = a great girls night to kick of the New Year!
