Best Wine Baskets: Gifts for Any Wine Lover

A-tisket, a-tasket, an assortment of award-winning Oregon wines in a basket (along with other glorious treats).

Jason Stahl

Nov 14, 2024

Wine is practically a way of life in Southern Oregon — it's been referred to as the Burgundy of the United States — and Harry & David has been at the forefront of this movement, producing its own award-winning wines for over 10 years, from cabernet and chardonnay to pinot noir and pinot gris.

And let's not forget about all the wine gift baskets that Harry & David assembles — by hand! And how great wine is as a gift. So, trust us when we tell you that these wine baskets make for great holiday gifts for any wine lover, whether they're a newb or full-blown oenophile. Or if you just want to impress some of your clients. You can toast us for landing that big account. Or send us a thank you gift. Most likely, it'll come from us anyway.

Breaking news: Harry & David launched three new wine labels and two of them are available right in this gift box! Freehaven Cellars 2022 red blend and WYNY Wine Co. 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon are made with grapes from across the Pacific Northwest, which is a wine region known for being very similar to France. And who knows more about wine than the French? Well, nowadays, Oregonians and Washingtonians.

No matter how you want to pronounce this wine brand, one sip of WYNY Syrah will have you shouting things like “I want more wine” and “Syrah is my new favorite varietal” and “Wait, there’s a second bottle in that basket?” I can only imagine what you’ll be saying when you pair these new wines with Gouda cheese, black olive spread, chocolate cacao nib shortbread cookies, and so much more nestled inside this basket.

A trio of wine bottles. You know what they say about things that come in threes, right? A rosé, white wine blend, and sparkling white from the brand spanking new Liv & Lil label is the highlight of this gift box that also features some Harry & David classics, like Moose Munch Premium Popcorn, Pepper & Onion Relish, and raspberry galettes. Grand indeed!



Holiday Wooden House Gift with Wine and Stemless Tree Wine Glasses

Holiday Wooden House Gift with Wine and Stemless Tree Wine Glasses

Any time food is used for art, I’m sold. The top of the 2019 Royal Crest Red blend – which won the silver medal at the 2022 San Francisco Chronicle Competition – doubles as a chimney top. How clever! And inside the decorative wood house is salami, cheese, chocolate truffles, and other remarkable treats that pair well with the wine. Now that’s a house I’d want to come home to everyday.

White Christmas Gift Basket with Sparkling Wine

Whether you celebrate the holiday or not, everyone dreams of a white Christmas, but climate change is making this rarer and rarer these days. Luckily, there’s a gift that’s all about having a white Christmas: yogurt-covered star-shaped pretzels, white chocolate-covered almonds, marshmallows, tree-shaped white chocolate bars to name a few. Oh, and to make your Christmas sparkle, a bottle of, well, sparkling wine.

Chocolate and wine go together like chocolate and peanut butter. Sure, I could have said macaroni and cheese or hot dogs and mustard, but chocolate just goes with everything. When you have this much chocolate (four pounds!), you’ll need two amazing bottles of wine, including one (2020 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon) that won the silver medal at the 2023 San Francisco International Competition.

Any word that rhymes with rosé is the perfect fit, and the upcoming holiday is no exception. Elegantize (I just made this word up) your Christmas with a refreshing bottle of rosé and a slew of other pinkish goodies like prosecco-flavored gummies and strawberry wafer rolls.

When a gift has the words "artisanal" and "reserve" in its name, you must click on it to see what's so artisanal about it and why you should reserve one. For you romantics, you will want to open this box on Christmas Eve. First, turn on your fireplace. If you don't have a fireplace, lightcandles, lots of 'em. Place all the contents (Fermin Lomo Serrano, truffle honey mustard seeds, quince paste, dark chocolate prosecco cordials, to name a few) on a board, pour yourself and your loved one a glass of the 2021 Reserve Pinot Noir, which just so happened to win silver at the 2023 San Francisco International Competition, and count down until jolly ol' St. Nick comes down the chimney.  Just remember to turn off the fireplace.

This wine basket makes me think about that commercial from the 1970s. You know the one, with the woman who had a tough day exclaiming: "Calgon, take me away!" Give the gift that can be enjoyed both in and out of a tub. Nothing says relaxation than sipping a glass of white wine while taking a bubble bath.
