Giving wine as a Christmas gift: how to avoid the mistake everyone makes?

Every year, as the holidays approach, it's the same question:
“What can I offer that will truly please?”

And often, we turn to a beautiful bottle. Wine is a warm, refined, convivial gift… but there's one mistake almost everyone makes:

👉 We choose a wine according to our own tastes.
Not according to those of the person who will receive it.

The result: a lover of light wines receives a powerful red.
A lover of dry white wines discovers a well-rounded white wine.
A friend who loves fruit ends up with a woody wine.

The gesture is noble, but the experiment is not always successful.


Why is it so difficult to choose for someone else?

Because in wine, taste is not universal .

Two people can taste the same bottle… and experience two completely different emotions.
Sensitivity to tannins, acidity, aromas, relationship to sugar, taste memories: all of this creates a unique signature.

This is what makes wine exciting, but also delicate to give as a gift.


The solution: know the person's palate

Imagine for a moment:
You give a gift set, your loved one takes a 2-minute quiz to discover what they really like…

… and then he receives three bottles perfectly aligned with his taste profile .

No more chance.
More risks.
Just a gift that hits the mark, because it truly reflects the person.
