All through human history, wine has been a celebratory beverage enjoyed in both social and religious occasions and rituals. For thousands of years wine has been savored for luxury, celebration, and religious functions. Wine was traditionally thought to have healing attributes and red wine is proven to be good for heart health. Even though not all civilizations drank wine for leisure, almost every world culture has a wine history whether used as drink or medicine. In my life, wine is fitting for enjoyment, relaxation, and sometimes, as medicine. This fact alone makes wine the ideal gift for any gathering. Each time I need a gift when visiting a friend’s home, as a housewarming gift, or in order to say “thank you,” wine is my first choice. Wine is not only a classy gift, but it’s easy to pair with appetizers, meals, and desserts. Enjoyed in high class social groups, wine pairings and tastings are a great way to network and socialize with friends. What a great occasion to socialize and learn a few things as well! Recently, I found myself in charge of planning out a fairly large social event. In all the confusion of planning and preparations, I forgot to notify one of the event sponsors of a change in date. The day before the show, we became aware of the problem when I received a phone call from the sponsor. As a result of the misunderstanding, they were unable to take part in the event and had blocked time out of their schedule for nothing. My initial response in apology was to send the sponsor a wine and cheese basket from Baskets By Rita. For $150 I was able to send them a basket packed with an assortment of red and white wines, cookies, an assortment of cheeses, smoked salmon, gourmet crackers, summer sausage, olives, dried fruits, caramel corn, candy, snack mix, fine chocolates, mixed nuts, and more. I thought that this would be a gift that could be shared among all of their employees and I hoped it would convey my apologies for the misunderstanding. I would suggest a Baskets By Rita wine basket for any occasion for which wine is proper. Whether you need to say thank you, send a housewarming gift, apologize, or present a gift when visiting a friend, Baskets By Rita has the best wine basket such as Vineyard Wine Gift Basket for the occasion. For the wine connoisseur, our Vineyard wine gift basket offers the choice of BV or Rodney Strong wines in an assortment of red and white wine along with cookies, smoked Gouda cheese, smoked salmon, wine cheese, gourmet crackers, beef summer sausage, olives, dried fruit, caramel corn, candy, cheese snack mix, fine chocolates, gourmet mixed nuts,and more. The wine basket is a great gift for a group to share. The BV selection includes Cabernet, Merlot, and Chardonnay wines.
