Boxes, caskets, decanters&#8230; so many gifts to enhance the tasting experience for your family or friends!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<h2>A great red wine for the holidays<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A classic gift, but a &#8220;safe&#8221; one. Indeed, unless the person you want to cheer up is repulsed by red wine, this is certainly the gift to make if you don&#8217;t have any ideas. Grand cru from Bordeaux or Burgundy, cuv\u00e9e extraordinaire from the Rhone Valley or the South West, you&#8217;ll be able to choose from an impressive number of bottles unique in style and character. We&#8217;ve selected two great vintages for you to give as Christmas gifts, available on twil.fr, the direct-to-producer website at the best prices on the market!  <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cuv\u00e9e Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru les Crots 2017 from Edouard Delaunay (\u20ac59 on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.twil.fr\/france\/bourgogne\/nuits-saint-georges\/nuits-saint-georges-1er-cru-les-crots-wine-12936.html#136867\">twil.fr<\/a>) is a fruity, gourmet Pinot with supple, mellow tannins. An elegant, full-bodied wine to delight the palate of your friends and family.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Graal Sanctus 2014 from domaine Les Roques de Cana (54.45\u20ac on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.twil.fr\/france\/sud-ouest\/cahors\/graal-sanctus-wine-20833.html#100148\">twil.fr<\/a>) is a typical Cahors wine, which will give you the opportunity to discover this fabulous appellation from its best angle! Empyreumatic, fruity aromas, full-bodied, elegant tannins, ample body and a long finish: a winning combo to enjoy. This mythical, mystical bottle belongs in the finest cellars.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<h2>A great Champagne<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re not satisfied with a red wine, you can also offer the luxury of a prestigious champagne. Often enjoyed during festive meals, this wine can also be opened for other special occasions (such as birthdays). All in all, a gift whose tasting heralds another! Here, too, we&#8217;ve put together a small selection of champagnes on special offer at the best prices on Twil.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cuv\u00e9e Orpale Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs vintage 2008 from the Saint-Gall house (99\u20ac on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.twil.fr\/france\/champagne\/champagne\/orpale-grand-cru-blanc-de-blancs-milesime-wine-76768.html#124674\">twil.fr<\/a>) is an exceptional champagne that has been crafted for ageing. Grande cuv\u00e9e made from blanc de blancs offers aromas typical of Champagnes of this rank: toasted almonds, white tobacco, acacia and white fruit. Fine bubbles, ample mouthfeel and long finish shape this legendary Champagne, which must be tasted at least once in a lifetime.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Grand Blanc de Blancs cuv\u00e9e from Gosset (\u20ac49.9 on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.twil.fr\/france\/champagne\/champagne\/grand-blanc-de-blancs-en-coffret-wine-73529.html#66724\">twil.fr<\/a>) is another great cuv\u00e9e vinified as a blanc de blancs. The cr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me of Champagnes, this type of cuv\u00e9e is made from only the finest Chardonnay grapes. Floral, mineral, fruity (apricot, mirabelle plum, yellow lemon) and honeyed aromas mingle on the nose of this Champagne, before giving way to a harmonious, fresh and complex palate.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<h2>A Twil gift box<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Would you like to offer several bottles to a loved one at a reduced price? With Twil, we&#8217;ve found THE solution! By putting together boxes of 2 or 3 bottles, the site lets you discover different types of vintages at mini prices. In all, the twil.fr website offers 4 gift sets: a Bordeaux Rive Droite gift set, a Bordeaux Rive Gauche gift set, a &#8220;Les Indispensables&#8221; gift set and a &#8220;Mettez des bulles dans votre vie!&#8221; gift set.  <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This kind of gift is ideal for a loved one who wants to discover a region, a type of appellation (Champagne) or a blend of several totally different wines. The &#8220;Les Indispensables&#8221; boxed set is quite interesting in that it offers three wines from three different regions: a Morgon C\u00f4te du Py, a Chablis and a Croze-Hermitage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Find gift sets on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.twil.fr\/tous-les-vins\/les-coffrets.html\">twil.fr<\/a>!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<h2>Aveine, the intelligent aerator<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A jewel in the crown of French Wine Tech, Aveine is a young start-up that has developed an intelligent system for aerating wines in a matter of seconds, which would normally require several hours of opening before consumption. The Aveine connected aerator is available in two ranges, the Essentiel at \u20ac249 and the Classic at \u20ac399 (the latter offering greater aeration capacity and better technology).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What&#8217;s more, Aveine systems feature a sleek design and micro-oxygenation technology that have earned them a CES Innovation Award in 2019, as well as an A&#8217; Design Award. The Aveine aerator is an essential gadget for all self-respecting wine lovers who want to optimize their drinking experience, whether for special occasions or everyday use.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<h2>Coravin, the system that preserves your bottles<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also in the wine tech sector, Coravin is a company founded in Burlington, Massachusetts, some ten years ago. With an international presence and a strong presence on social networks (particularly Instagram), the company offers a wide range of systems for serving wine without opening the bottle. Cutting-edge technology enables a thin needle to penetrate the cork and extract wine, while injecting a gas to prevent the liquid from oxidizing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Essential in many wine bars and restaurants, Coravin systems have recently been extended to the homes of wine lovers, enabling them to enjoy their favorite wines glass by glass. Available from around a hundred euros on their website (\u20ac119.99 for the first price and \u20ac199.99 for the standard model), Coravin systems also democratize access to wine, giving us the opportunity to taste bottles we wouldn&#8217;t have uncorked because of their price.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<h2>A Twil producer-direct wine box subscription<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Would you like to treat a loved one to some wine, but don&#8217;t know which bottle to choose? Don&#8217;t worry, choose a twil box subscription. The box, priced at \u20ac29.9 per month on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.twil.fr\/abonnements\">twil.fr<\/a> website, gives you two vintages selected by a team passionate about unique and remarkable wines.  <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This box is unique in that it works exclusively with winegrowers, allowing us to showcase the key players in this field. The latter are still too often disadvantaged by the excessive number of intermediaries, forcing them to lower their margins. Twil offers you the chance to discover special wines that are as respectful of nature as possible, all the while doing good business and putting producers in the spotlight.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<h2>Ma cave \u00e0 vin, the apartment wine cellar expert<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ma cave \u00e0 vin is the French expert in wine cellars and cellar design. With dozens of wine cellar brands and models to choose from, depending on the amount of storage space, as well as the number of serving and storage temperatures required, the company has established itself as the French market leader. You can call one of our advisors to draw up a quotation based on your needs, whether it&#8217;s an aging cellar, a service cellar or a mobile bar.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In terms of price range, thanks to the wide variety of brands on the  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ma-cave-a-vin.fr\">ma-cave-a-vin.fr<\/a>There&#8217;s something for every taste, from \u20ac300 to \u20ac400 for the cheapest, to tens of thousands of euros for the largest and most sophisticated.  <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<h2>A Riedel mouth-blown decanter<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you know that many bottles are best decanted a few minutes (or hours) before tasting? Young, tannic wines need to be aerated to open up and soften their tannins. Older wines need to be decanted to settle their lees and the various impurities that have developed over time.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-h2\"><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And what could be better than a decanter handcrafted in Austria&#8217;s finest workshops? On its website, Austrian glassmaker Riedel offers a number of decanter models (more or less expensive depending on shape and manufacturing method) that evoke animals such as the boa, swan or Mamba. In addition, each model can be customized with colored glass inlays to give the decanter an original touch. In short, Riedel decanters are the result of know-how and a love of beautiful objects to decorate your table or furniture.  <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]<div class=\"round-link-container\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinispi.com\/en\/sujet\/celebrations\/\" rel=\"tag\">#Celebrations<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinispi.com\/en\/sujet\/actu-en\/\" rel=\"tag\">#News<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinispi.com\/en\/sujet\/noel-en\/\" rel=\"tag\">#No\u00ebl<\/a><\/div>[vc_empty_space]Array[vc_empty_space][vc_empty_space]<div class='shortcode-x-offerts'><div class='shortcode-x-offers-block'><strong>10 \u20ac offerts sur votre premi\u00e8re commande !<\/strong><div>Achetez vos vins en vente priv\u00e9e sur Twil.
