6 WINES TO ENJOY WITH DAD ON FATHER’S DAY…AND BEYOND!
Are you struggling to find the perfect gift for the special Dad(s) in your life? Or maybe you just don’t know what to pair with the meal that you’ve planned for Father’s Day this year?
I get it. I find shopping for my husband (on behalf of my kids) for a Father’s Day gift, or planning a great meal to thrill him with, to be an especially difficult undertaking.
It might be because he’s tough to shop for and always insists that he doesn’t need or want a gift. Or maybe it’s because all of the usual suspects when it comes to Father’s Day gifts - i.e. socks, ties, shoes, scotch and BBQ accessories - just don’t feel original or inspiring. And making a meal…..well, he’s better at that than I am so making him dinner is always challenging for me.
So, what’s my answer? Wine, of course! :)
Wine makes a lovely and memorable gift that has a story and sentimental value - for example, why you purchased a particular wine for a particular person, or the story of where the wine comes from and/or who makes it. And of course, the right wine is sure to elevate any meal on Father’s Day, whether it is homemade, made from scratch or takeout from Dad’s favourite restaurant!
To help you find the perfect wine for Father’s Day (and beyond), I’ve put together a diverse list of 6 wine recommendations across a range of price points and styles. These wines are delicious crowd-pleasers that are readily available right now. I’m certain there is something in this list for everyone, from wine newbie to serious wine enthusiast!
Happy reading!
