Celebrate Love This February with Wine and Elegance

February, the month of love, is a time to celebrate the beauty of connection and affection—whether with a partner, family, friends, or yourself. Valentine's Day serves as a symbol of romance, passion, and the many layers of love that enrich our lives.

Among the many gifts exchanged on this special day, wine stands out as a timeless and thoughtful choice. Much like love, wine is an intricate blend of complexity and beauty. Its rich aromas, diverse flavours, and unique textures create an experience that is both sensory and memorable. Popular Valentine’s Day wine selections often include bold Bordeaux blends or layered Chardonnay’s, making them perfect companions for the occasion.

Valentine’s Day accessories to appreciate a fine wine

Valentine’s Day is typically celebrated with unforgettable evenings filled with romance, laughter, and, of course, exquisite wine. Whether you're planning an intimate candlelit dinner at home or indulging in a fine dining experience, wine plays a central role in creating a meaningful atmosphere.

For those seeking to elevate their celebrations, the addition of stylish wine accessories can add charm, sophistication, and an extra layer of thoughtfulness to the occasion. A beautifully aged wine can set the mood, and the right tools and accents can make the experience even more memorable.

Make this Valentine’s Day unforgettable by pairing your wine with accessories that enhance every moment, letting the beauty of love—and wine—take centre stage.

Veloce Champagne Flutes

If champagne or another sparkling wine is on the menu for your evening, toast to the evening’s romantic overtures using a pair of Veloce Champagne Flutes. They’re designed with a diamond shape that unlocks the unique aromas of sparkling wines.

The wider bowl allows the complex compounds of champagne to grow and intensify. You can savour every bubbly sip with help from the wider rim diameter. The glass also includes a 'sparkling point' to aid the formation of the Champagne bubbles.

Gabriel-Glas Standart Wine Glass

Riedel Veloce Syrah

The Riedel Veloce Syrah has a diamond shape and extreme angles that open up more space to let bold red wines breathe before consumption. A slightly tapered opening balances out the larger bowl, creating intense mouth-filling fruity aromas and compounds, that produce a long sweet finish on the palate.

Valentine’s Day is more than just a celebration of love—it’s a chance to look forward and create lasting memories. Many couples use this special day to plan future experiences, especially those who cherish time spent outdoors.
