8 Wine Gifts for Mom That Are Really Grape

Choose six bottles from a selection of 21 different wines all from the Pacific Northwest, including the outstanding Rogue, Umpqua, and Willamette valleys in Oregon, which are considered some of the best wine regions in the world. This is a treat for the wine connoisseur mom who is building her collection. I especially love the 2022 Freehaven Pinot Noir, which offers all the depth and complexity of a French pinot from Burgundy — they sit at the same latitude — but with less acidity (due to the cooler Oregon climate).

Spring represents rebirth and since your mother is the one who birthed you, this gift is ideal for her. Spend the day with Mom as she gets to enjoy two bottles (OK, so maybe not all in one day, right?) from Lucca & Sons Cellars — rosé and a white blend — that pairs beautifully with salami, sharp white cheddar cheese, mini toasts, almonds, dried apricots, and honey mustard.

Toting this picnic set along on the next trip to the park or the beach — even your backyard! — would make for a helluva Saturday outing with a best mom friend. The insulated cooler keeps the two wines (2020 Royal Crest Red blend and the award-winning 2021 Sauvignon Blanc) cool. The red blend goes especially well with the cheese and salami. I love this gift for the new mom of a baby or toddler who won't yet wander too far off the picnic blanket.

What, do you expect her to drink straight from the bottle? Your mother's classy! Commemorate Mother's Day by printing a dedication, an inspirational quote, or a love note on a wine glass, with or without a stem, in one of three sizes. If I had one of these, it would be the glass I would reach for when I want to unwind with a generous pour of my favorite rosé.

Your mother is sweet and has a sparkling personality, so why wouldn't you get this gift for her? It's named for her, silly! Plus, the presentation of the cookies, cupcakes, and chocolate-covered strawberries is absolutely adorable. Again, just like Mom! The sparkling part of the gift is a bottle of sparkling rosé and white.

For a beautiful gesture of love and affection, surprise your mom with two dozen red roses paired with one of five different varietals, including rosé, pinot gris, and reserve pinot noir. Roses and rosé are a perfect match since floral notes are among the wide range of aromatics you'll discover in a glass of rosé. Don't forget to add some chocolate truffles while you're at it.

I treasure my personalized coffee mugs. I have a half-dozen of them, with everything from photos of my son's Little League team to baby photo collages to the words "I love you so much, Mama" that I made for myself. (I know.) Think of these personalized charms as a special gift for a wine-loving grandmother and create charms with pictures of her grandkids.
