For that special gift, be it for Corporate promotions, or for special occasions, why not consider having our bottles in a pine timber box?
These are available in single bottle boxes ($18) or for the double bottle boxes ($24) and any wine can be chosen. Just as an idea the Chardonnay and Cabernet Merlot for a red and white wine, our Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, to show varietal differences or the 1998 and 1999 Cabernets to show vintage variations.
