Our take
This is the biggest holiday basket we feature, and it's built for a crowd. You get a white and two different reds, plus a full board of salami, two cheeses, three kinds of crackers and biscuits, and five sweets. That makes it a strong pick for a family, an office or a holiday party host. At $259.99 it's the same price as our Wine Lovers Trio, which pairs its three bottles with a simpler cheese and salami spread. Pick this one when you want more food to share.

| Excursion Red Blend by Line 39 | 750 ml | An easy-drinking red blend, a safe choice for a group. |
| Mencía Roble by Álvarez de Toledo | 750 ml | A Spanish red made from the Mencía grape. "Roble" means it spent a short time in oak. |

How to Serve It
- Start with the white: chill the Sauvignon Blanc and serve it with the cheddar, oatcakes and Gruyère biscuits.
- Then the reds: pour the red blend and the Mencía with the fennel salami, garlic cheese and peppercorn crackers.
- For dessert: set out the shortbread cookies, caramels and chocolate nuts with whatever red is left.
Is It a Good Value?
At $259.99, plus the $7.99 signature fee (about $268 before shipping), this is the priciest wine basket on our Christmas page. You get three full bottles and more than three pounds of snacks, so it works out well if you're feeding a group. If you want a smaller gift, the Christmas Wine Duo Gift Basket ($179.99) has two bottles, and the Red Wine Countryside Gift Crate ($74.99) has one.
Delivery and Shipping
Adult signature required
A recipient 21 or older must show ID and sign, and the merchant adds a $7.99 adult-signature fee. The carrier won't leave it at the door, so if no one is home, delivery can be delayed. A staffed workplace is often the easiest address, but first check that their employer allows alcohol gifts.
Can't ship to: Arkansas, Delaware, Maine, Michigan, Mississippi, New Jersey, Utah, military APO/FPO addresses (AA, AE, AP), Guam or Puerto Rico. For these recipients, choose a gourmet gift basket without wine.
Christmas timing
Christmas week is the busiest time of year for gift delivery. Order early, and pick a day when someone will be home to sign and bring the wine inside out of the cold. If it's for a party, have it arrive a few days before.
