Wine and Accessories Basket

My idea of the perfect holiday wine gift basket would include everything needed for a romantic night of sipping wine and snacking by the fireplace. Of course, it would have to include a bottle of Dry Creek Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc, which is my favorite wine of all times.

I would also like to have everything needed to enjoy my favorite wine: 2 wine glasses, a wine bottle opener, lots of fresh fruit, cheese and nuts. The fruit should be strawberries, grapes, kiwi, and blackberries. There should be a mixture of cheeses such as Gouda, brie, sharp cheddar and Swiss. A variety of snack crackers would also be nice.
A jar of green olives would also make a nice addition.

To top off my wonderful wine adventure, there would need to be cashew nuts, smoked almonds, pistachios, and English walnuts. Other items in my ideal holiday wine gift basket might include a picnic blanket, a cheese slicer, a small cutting board and 2 small plates. This would give me everything that I would need to enjoy a nice evening by the fire with my sweetheart.
