It’s that time of the year when holiday wish lists and gift guides proliferate your inbox, where supply chain woes make us feel like we should have ordered our gifts in November and when to-do lists grow past the point of feeling like there’s any point in them at all.
At Tipsy, we’d like to help make the holidays easier on you. Wine, spirits, bubbles and wine accessories make the perfect gifts because they’re experiential and meant to be shared together. We’ve got something for everyone on your list:
For your hipster coworker

Erstwhile Mezcal Espadín,($60): Support small producers with this fair trade spirit with stunning packaging.
For your feminist BFF
Une Femme Juliette 1er Cru Champagne ($66): Get a bottle from this woman winemaker for the femme you want to celebrate

For roommates from the past, present and future
El Impostor Sparkling Cinsault ($16) - this sparkling wine is fun, delicious and impossible to categorize
