Wine to Buy As the Perfect Gift

When thinking about that all important gift for that all important friend or loved one, wine is a great alternative. However with so many varieties of grape and wineries to choose from, how do you know what wine to buy? The Buy Wine Online have compiled a list of sure fire gift friendly wines to choose from!

PETER LEHMANN EDEN VALLEY RIESLING has the unique distinction of being awarded the Best Riesling in the World a stunning five times at the International Wine and Spirit Competition in London. That is more than any other white wine in the world today! This sassy little blonde with green hues signifies another pleasant, approachable and tasty drop from South Australia's Eden Valley. Approachable, tasty and superbly crafted by a stable bearing the name of one of the most famous Australian wine makers of all times, this wine is a perfect gift for anyone who enjoys a good quality white.

MOLLYDOOKER TWO LEFT FEET SHIRAZ CABERNET MERLOT has endless charm and appeal for a variety of reasons. The Mollydooker wine series are a great one to introduce new acquaintances to wine due to their story telling vibe and artistic labels. Mollydooker, meaning "left hander" in Aussie slang, makes you kind of wonder why such a sensational wine such as this is accused of being left handed AND having two left feet, or perhaps this is a rather big compliment the righties of us have not been let in on. The Mollydooker wines top the list of interesting wine to buy for their charming art, story and quality. This is a gift for those searching for a unique talking point.

TERRA FELIX SHIRAZ VIOGNIER also has something different and special for those looking for an unusual story and taste in a great Australian red wine. "Terra Felix" means simply, "lucky country" and those of you who try to avoid fining agents have indeed struck it lucky with the Terra Felix Shiraz Viognier as his wine making is free of common fining agents. It is surprising with a mix of Shiraz 95% and Viognier 5% just how much an incredible imprint the grapes make. We have all the spice and pepper of shiraz intermingled with becoming apricot fragrance and a twist on the usual shiraz which is delightfully crisp and harks back to French tradition through its Rhone Valley echoes within the flavour. A vegan friendly wine that has a tidy pile of medals and some great reviews to his credit, the Terra Felix Shiraz Viognier is an awesome cellar addition.

BRIGHTWATER SAUVIGNON BLANC is for those who enjoy the work of smaller vineyards and the glory that is a well placed Kiwi sauvignon blanc. Out of a relatively small but clever stable, this lovely little number is another achievement for Brightwater. A classy lass to be enjoyed by the glass, she lures you in with intense aromas of fresh-cut grass, gooseberry and lemon. On the palate she is a rainbow of rich, long-lasting zesty tropical fruits flavours before you again she is crisp, pure and lively through her nicely kicky but well balanced acid finish. You can take this lass as a wine to buy for dinner, or as a gift to cellar for about three years without issue. Brightwater is another success story from New Zealand's Marlborough region and certainly one to watch out for!

We hope you enjoyed the Buy Wine Online mini tour of the great quality wines with a bit of difference.
