Have you ever dreamed of Wine Country? Do you know someone else who might have?

Perhaps we can deliver Wine Country to their door this week for you?

At Wine Country Gift Baskets we help you give the gift of experience to the people who matter most to you.

Wine Country living is not only about the place; it is about the people who live, work, and play there. The persistent laid-back attitude that pervades the place lends itself to giving and sharing of special moments. And there is so many tremendous things from Wine Country to be shared.

Of course, Wine Country begins with the grapes vineyards that can often stretch well beyond your line of sight. And when these tiny berries are soaked in the California sun just long enough, picked at the precise moment, and then fermented perfectly, they taste exactly like the ideal place to live, laugh, and love. If you are ever able to walk through the vineyard, admire its contours and exquisite vines, smell the richness of its soil, you too would know it is a very special place. It exudes an indefinable quality that cannot be easily described in mere words the feeling there is almost mystical. Yes, Wine Country is an amazing place with so much sensory bounty that you can easily get lost in the bliss of the moment.

The breath-taking and soothing scenery and laid-back atmosphere have a calming, pleasurable effect on the people in Wine Country. The feeling that the place gives us allows us to experience the types of moments that can take our breath away and last an eternity. For when you're in Wine Country you often feel that you have to slow down and cherish each one of these moments. When you're here, you pay more attention to the small things and remember to give your focus to those people who matter most to you.

Those who tend the vineyards, grow the grapes and then elegantly craft their wines remind us that they are in essence farmers. For these winemakers, the harvest season represents a time of celebration as the bulk of vineyard grapes are plucked from the vine and brought indoors to be pressed, fermented, and bottled. The most esteemed winemakers also know that the wines that they delicately craft should reflect the place: because the wine is the product of the soil, the climate, the water and the careful stewardship of these precious resources, they work seamlessly together to breathe life and vigor into it. In fact, over many centuries, The French began to crystallize this concept of 'terroir' as a way of expressing the unique aspects of a particular place that influences and shapes the wine that is made from it. But the place also shapes and molds the people there as well. For those people who make wine, and for those of us who also love wine, we know that it has to be shared with others.

Therefore, hospitality and wine are nearly synonymous. It is all about sharing the bounty of the sumptuous landscape and savoring it with those who are most important to us. The thing about wine, of course, is that it also has a synergy with food. They enhance each other. Accordingly, food is elevated here as well. Food, wine, music, art, and conversation are to be shared with and given to our friends, family, loved ones, and those special people in our lives who matter most. In this sense, giving is truly better than receiving. Incorporating this type of gift giving enhances the quality of life yours and the recipient.

Close friends, family, and those special people in your life are able give you both meaning and magnificent memories. They also contribute to your personal pleasure, making music sound sweeter, the wine taste richer, and the laughter ring louder because they are there. At Wine Country Gift Baskets we believe the best gift is a consumable experience that helps to create this type of lasting memory.

You can give a Gift Basket that will let your special recipient know how much they truly mean to you. As they indulge in the goodness within they can have a Wine Country experience all their own.

For us, Wine Country isn't merely a place, but a state of mind. And what better way to share it? You can now deliver the bounty of wine country directly to those who you care about. Inspire people with the most memorable sumptuous, sweet, and savory gifts harvested and curated from Wine Country and around the world.

Because every day should feel like one worth celebrating, we can take that Wine Country state of mind, tie it up with a bow and deliver it right to your door.
