Wedding season is here, and with it comes the task of finding the perfect gift for the happy couples in your life. If you're looking for the best luxurious and memorable gift ideas for the wine lover in your life, look no further than our list of wedding gift recommendations by our Lead Sommelier, Elyse Lovenworth.

From personalized keepsakes to indulgent experiences, we've compiled a selection of independent wines and related gifts that will stand the test of time. So, whether you're attending the wedding of a close friend or a distant relative, you can show your love and appreciation with one of these unique gifts:

Artisanal Wine

Make a statement with a high-end bottle of artisanal wine not easily found in stores. Whether the bride and groom prefer red, white or sparkling, these selections are sure to impress even the most discerned palate:

Wine Tasting Experience

Give the gift of a personalized wine tasting experience with Sommsation. With connections to world-class sommeliers and top-tier winemakers from around the world, the couple can indulge in hidden gems from independent wineries and expert insights from engaging sommeliers for an unforgettable experience.

Wine Club Subscription

We are honored to partner with many incredible wineries, some of whom have their own wine subscriptions. Surprise the couple with a membership to a prestigious wine club, such as Halter Ranch Winery, DeLille Cellars, or DaVero Farms & Winery, for a gift that keeps the wine flowing.

Premium Glassware

Elevate the couple's drinking experience with premium glassware designed for luxurious sipping. The Gabriel-Glas DrinkArt Bottle stemless glasses are a current favorite and can be used for any beverage, not just wine. 


Additional recommendations are the Zalto Hand-Blown Universal Wine Glass at $75 per stem for wine. For champagne, RIEDEL Veloce Champagne Wing Glass $79 (set of 2) or the Waterford Elegance  Belle Coupe $110 (set of 2) are a real treat.

Wine Coffee Table Book

For a wine-adjacent gift that varies from the usual wine opener, consider a beautifully crafted coffee table book on wine that will not only impress guests but also provide inspiration for the couple's next wine adventure. While there are plenty of beautiful wine books to choose from, two favorites are Napa Valley Then & Now, Kelli A. White and Champagne: The essential guide to the wines, producers, and terroirs of the iconic region, Peter Liem.

Cheese Club Subscription

A cheese board and knives, while lovely, are predictable gifts. Instead, surprise the couple with a cheese club subscription from a creamery or cheese retailer that offers a variety of artisanal cheeses. Two of Sommsation’s partners that are highly recommended for their quality and selection are Cheese Social Club - Rogue Creamery, Jasper Hill Cheese Club.

Coffee Club Subscription

Similar to cheese, a coffee club subscription is an excellent option for the couple that appreciates artisanal blends. Gift a subscription from a single roaster to impress or retailer for more variety.

Gift Card to a Notorious Wine Restaurant

Give the couple a night out at a renowned wine restaurant, such as COTE Korean Steakhouse in NYC & Miami, 2 Amys Neapolitan Pizzeria in Washington DC, Pizzeria Beddia in Philadelphia, or Zuni Cafe in San Francisco. If you need help selecting a standout wine restaurant local to the newly weds, we recommend searching James Beard nominees for wine and beverage programs or asking a sommelier.

Wine Accessories

For a practical yet luxurious gift perfect for any wine lover, consider wine accessories such as a wine aerator, decanter, or a set of wine stoppers. Some fantastic products currently on the market include: Brümate Winesulator + 2 Uncork'd XL Set $84.99, RIEDEL Cabernet Decanter $55, Le Creuset Waiter's Friend Corkscrew $43.99

The simplest and most convenient way to gift wine is through an online shop like Sommsation. Our team of experts can guide you to finding the perfect bottle of high-end wine suited to impress a wine lover’s palate. Once you have your selection, you’ll simply need to notify the recipient that they will need to sign for the package upon delivery and let us handle the rest. 

With these luxurious wedding gift ideas, you'll surely impress the wine-loving couple and help them create unforgettable memories.
