ON THE surface, finding the ideal gift for your wine loving friend or relative seems like a tough task. After all, wine can be intimidating stuff, with its protocol for sipping, varietal-specific glassware, and complicated tasting notes.

Well, it shouldn't be that way. Wine is merely food―fermented liquid food meant for enjoyment in the company of your favorite people. It also combines so much more, like art, agriculture, history, style, gastronomy, and elegance. Something so dynamic has a lot of great related gifts, just waiting to wow those you know and love who deeply admire wine.

By all means, procure a great bottle and wrap it up nicely. Just forego the "Merlot Man" tee-shirts and cheesy magnets about how it's okay to "wine a little" when things aren't going your way. Class it up and stick to the list below, fit with everything from special wine pouring gadgets and prints to decanters and entertaining books. Wine is a way of life and should be celebrated as much, with all the appropriate accoutrements that help elevate it even further.

Because when you gain a deeper understanding of the stuff and treat it with some respect, it'll do the same for you. That's the magic of wine. Well we're on the theme, here are 43 best gifts for wine lovers.
