Shopping for someone who loves wine? From a bottle with a story to an evening spent tasting something new, there’s plenty to choose from at Humble Grape. The trick is finding the gift that feels right for them. Here are a few ideas for the curious beginner, the adventurous sipper and everyone in between.
Christmas Wine Gifts for Every Kind of Wine Lover
For the Adventurous Sipper: A Bottle from Somewhere New
Know someone who’s always curious about the next grape or region? Surprise them with a wine from an independent winemaker they might not have discovered yet. A bright white, characterful red or festive fizz makes a lovely present when you choose it with their tastes in mind. Browse our online wine shop for bottles and cases, or ask the team in your nearest Humble Grape for a recommendation.
For the Curious Beginner: A Wine Tasting
A wine tasting gives them the chance to discover styles they enjoy and learn a little along the way. Explore our upcoming wine tasting events to find an experience they can look forward to. If they enjoy good food with their wine, a Winemaker Supper Club is another lovely option. Check the events calendar for dates and availability before booking.
For the Wine Enthusiast: A WSET Course
For the friend who enjoys talking grapes, regions and tasting notes, a course at the Humble Grape Wine School could be just the thing. Our WSET Level 1 and Level 2 courses offer a more structured way to explore the world of wine. Check the current course schedule and booking arrangements before giving a place as a gift.
For the Humble Grape Regular: Humble Club Membership
If their idea of a perfect catch-up already involves a visit to Humble Grape, consider a Humble Club gift membership. It brings wine-loving perks throughout the membership period, making it a present they can enjoy well beyond Christmas Day. Explore the current membership benefits and gift options before choosing.
For the Hard-to-Buy-For: A Gift Voucher
When you’re unsure whether they’re in the mood for red, white or something sparkling, let them choose. A Humble Grape gift voucher is a flexible option for someone who would enjoy picking their own wine or planning a visit. Check the voucher terms and redemption options when purchasing.
How to Choose a Christmas Wine Gift
Start with what they already love. Do they reach for crisp whites, enjoy bold reds or light up when someone opens Champagne? If you know their favourite style, explore a new region or producer within it. If you’re buying a bottle to bring to Christmas dinner, our guide to choosing the perfect Christmas wine has food-pairing ideas to help.

Last-Minute Christmas Wine Gifts
