Top Picks for Holiday Gifting
Veritage White
Bright. Textured. Crowd-Pleasing.
A favorite for holiday tables and gifting, Veritage White balances Viognier’s vibrant citrus with Roussanne’s soft, silky texture. Its floral aromatics and subtle creaminess make it an excellent pick for hosts, home cooks, and anyone who loves a versatile white they can pair with everything from roasted poultry to richer winter sides.
Gamay Noir
Cheerfully elegant and exceptionally food-friendly.
The ideal red for gatherings, Gamay Noir offers red berry fruit, gentle spice, and soft tannins that won’t overwhelm holiday dishes. It’s a go-to gift for the friend who loves Pinot but is ready to explore something more distinctive.
Pinot Gris
Crisp, refreshing, and universally loved.
This Pinot Gris is clean, aromatic, and all-season drinkable. Fresh orchard fruit and a mineral edge make it a favorite for white-wine drinkers and an easy match for seafood towers, cheese boards, and lighter fare on the holiday table.
Fumé Blanc
Aromatic lift meets winter warmth.
This Colorado-grown Sauvignon Blanc shines with zesty citrus and subtle oak influence. It’s a perfect gift for adventurous white-wine lovers who want something expressive, bright, and a little unexpected. Great for ski weekends, cozy winter dinners, and holiday hosting kits.
Grand Vin
A luxurious, gifting-worthy Bordeaux-style blend.
Grand Vin is the bottle that makes an entrance. Rich, structured, and layered with dark fruit, spice, and elegant oak, this is the wine you reserve for your most meaningful gifts: clients, close friends, mentors, or that special someone who appreciates a standout red.
