A Champagne Saber made for sommeliers: Nothing says Merry Christmas better than a sword that can slice the top off a Champagne bottle.

Sywawa Brandy designer firepit and Fire Away firepit: Nothing beats a firepit and glass of McLaren Vale Grenache on a cold winter’s night – to me, this is heaven!   You can have one that is shaped like a wine glass, or support an Aussie designer friend of the Wine Wankers – The Fire-Away firepit, which actually flat packs away during the summer months!  Buy it here and here.

  16. Thanks for so many new ideas. For some time I have been looking for champagne flutes with a belly and taper, not dissimilar to the standard ISO glass. I have found one that fits the bill: the box says Living Space, Silueta, European glass champagne flute. A box of four is $29.99 at Spotlight.

  39. Lots of fun gift ideas here. Wall wine racks or wine glasses racks can also be a great idea for holiday gifts. Many of these wine racks are handmade and many are also affordable.
