When I'm invited to a dinner, party, or bbq and don't have the time to put together a special gift for the hostess, I'll stop by my local wine shop and pick up a bottle for her to enjoy at a later date. I include a nice appreciative note and package the bottle to look pretty. Tying a bow with a satin ribbon makes it look festive, but if you don't have a huge collection of ribbon like I do, think about buying a set of these wine bottle gift bags.
Printed with made up wine notes like, an explosion of blackberries and cranberry zing, these are cheeky and fun. The brown bag material gives them a sense of eco-awareness while the silver lettering makes them celebratory.
Although I don't advocate re-gifting, these bags can be recycled and reused for other wine gifts. Get them while they are hot, a set of 6 is only $12.00, and I don't know about you, but I'm ordering two.

I don't know, brown bag doesn't say "glamorous" to me, silver lettering or not. I much prefer the bags or boxes, or including it in a basket with other items.
1i agree with greggie
2I like the idea of doing it myself and adding personal touches. But I think that if I was going last minute, this would be a great gift idea!
3I think these are adorable, although I did see some really nice leather wine bags recently in Italy and think those would be great for a special occasion.
4They remind me of the House of Holland tee-shirts. I think thats supposed to be the glamour element...
