Than you to Gold Medal Wine Club for the samples. All thoughts are my own.

The holidays are here, and it's the perfect time to strike up the band and celebrate! There are lots of people in my life whom I love to pamper during the holidays. When I think about pampering, gifs like wine and spa products immediately come to mind... along with good chocolate, of course. My kids have been fighting terrible colds since Thanksgiving. We feel like we've hardly been able to get anything done, and if anyone could use a little pampering, it's us!

Gold Medal Wine Club has the perfect gifts for anyone who could use a little extra pampering this holiday season! Maybe it's a mom from your mommy and me group, or a super wonderful friend or teacher. Maybe you'd like to thank a volunteer who works with your kids in an after school program, or maybe you're just looking to spoil a member of your family.

Linda & David Chesterfield started the wine of the month club when they couldn't find the quality of wines they were looking for or loved at local wine shops. That was 26+ years ago and they now have 6 different wine club options to choose from, all featuring high-quality wines at affordable prices.

All of the wines they feature are from small production wineries in California, Washington, Oregon, and international estates. They have been chosen due to ratings, medals, and reviews from trusted top wine publications such as Wine Enthusiast and/or major wine competitions around the country. Wine shipments can be customized to ship monthly, every-other-month, or quarterly. 

We had the opportunity to check out this amazingly beautiful Wine Spa Day Gift from Gold Medal Wine Club this holiday season! This is a wonderful gift set, and is an incredible value, considering what's included.

2 Bottles of yumminess- merlot and champagne.

This gift set is two-fold. There are two bottles of wine included in a gorgeous Napa Valley gift box. The gift box was designed by Artist — Kristin Hurlin - Collectable Artist Series. This is definitely a gorgeous box to hold onto or to put on display in your home or office.

About the wines

1) This exclusively-imported Bernard Remy Prestige Champagne is a Brut Cuvée offering intricate and balanced notes from your first sip to the long, lingering finish. Vigorous bubbles keep this Champagne fresh, lively and a perfect choice for any celebration! This is an Exclusive Import, rated 92 Points + Gold Medal + Cellar Selection by Tastings.com. This is truly fabulous!

2) The Vino Valpredo 2012 Merlot reflects on Merlot's softer, more elegant side with fruit sourced from some of the region's most treasured vineyards. Aromas of red currant and plum blend seamlessly on the nose while the palate enjoys a similar flavor profile of plum, dried cranberries, and baking spices. Everything about this wine is engulfed in soft, velvet-like tannins and ends with a beautiful, long-lasting finish.

What's Wine Without Chocolate?

Decadent chocolate truffles included with this gift set!

I love chocolate and truffles just happen to be a favorite of mine. I usually make my own every year, but this year, these are surely taking place of anything I could have whipped up.

For Jessica Foster, making truffles is an expressive epicurean art. With her diverse palate of Belgian chocolates, she blends exotic teas, herbs, and spices, infusing her confections to create intriguing flavors. Her inspiration surrounds her and by means of this decadent medium, she creates sumptuous chocolate pieces, sculpting each one lovingly by hand for Gold Medal Wine Club. Each box includes eight hand-made truffles to pair with their exquisite wines. 

Spa Gift Box, featuring items crafted in Napa Valley

This beautiful gift box is packaged so nicely! It includes everything needed for a spa day at home, including soaps, lotions, bath bombs and more!

Handmade in the Napa Valley:

• "Soapignon Blanc" Bar Soap

• 2 Bath Bombs - Cabernet and Chardonnay

• Mandarin Chardonnay Lotion

• Mandarin Chardonnay Body Wash & Bubble Bath

• Soap Lift

Napa Soap Company was founded by Napa Valley local, Sheila Rockwood. Having grown up in the Napa Valley, Sheila wanted to create a product which utilized ingredients made in the Napa Valley. After researching the therapeutic benefits of a by-product of the local wine industry, cold-pressed grapeseed oil, Sheila decided to use this wonderful ingredient throughout her line. Napa Soap is handmade in very limited quantities - less than 50 bars at a time.

This amazing gift set is the ultimate gift for any wine lover in your life! Not only are the wines and chocolates perfect to sip and savor, but the accompanying spa set will also have you leaving your troubles far behind!
