A Valpolicella wine tasting gift is one of the most memorable presents you can give a wine lover — and the simplest way to give it is a gift card or experience voucher that the recipient redeems for a private tasting or winery visit near Verona. They pick the date and the experience themselves, so you give the moment without having to plan the logistics. This guide explains how it works and which experiences make the best gifts.

Every tour is tailor-made. Reach out and we'll craft an itinerary that fits your pace, your tastes, and your story.
Why give an experience instead of a bottle
A great bottle is gone in an evening. A day in the vineyards — walking a working cellar, tasting Amarone where it’s made, learning from a sommelier — stays with people for years. For anniversaries, honeymoons, birthdays, weddings and corporate thank-yous, a shared experience consistently outshines a physical gift.
A Valpolicella tasting is especially well suited to gifting: it’s intimate (private, small groups), set in one of Italy’s most beautiful wine landscapes, and completely arranged for the recipient. To understand what they’ll be tasting, see our Valpolicella wine tours guide.
How a wine tasting gift card works
The process is deliberately simple:
- Choose a gift card — set the value, or pick a specific experience.
- Give it — you receive it digitally to pass on whenever you like.
- The recipient books — they contact us and choose the date that suits them.
Because the date is open, there’s no pressure to coordinate calendars at the time of purchase. You can buy an Enouting gift card here.
The best experiences to gift
Any of our private experiences can be given as a gift. The most popular for gifting are:
- Taste of Valpolicella — a guided tasting tour through the region’s vineyards with a sommelier. The classic choice, from around €250 per person.
- Surprise Wine Day — a day designed around the recipient and kept secret until the morning, with a reveal kit to hand over. Ideal for a more generous gift.
- Sunday Tasting with Lunch — an unhurried tasting followed by lunch at the winery; perfect for a special occasion.
For the wine lover who truly has everything, there is also the Enouting Wine Passport — an annual membership of ten private cellar visits at partner estates across Valpolicella, Soave and Lake Garda, arranged end to end. Instead of one day, you give a year of cellar doors. More experience-gift ideas in our gifts for wine lovers guide.
For couples and special milestones, the experiences that include lunch turn a tasting into a whole day to remember.
Gifting for weddings, corporate & special occasions
A wine experience scales beautifully beyond a single couple:
- Weddings & honeymoons. A private Valpolicella tasting makes a memorable wedding gift, or a honeymoon highlight for couples travelling to Italy.
- Corporate gifts & team experiences. A guided tasting is a polished thank-you for clients or a team, far more personal than a generic hamper. Group experiences are private, so the whole party shares the day together.
- Milestone birthdays & anniversaries. Round-number celebrations call for something more than an object — a day in the vineyards becomes the story people retell for years.
Because the gift card is open-dated and the experiences are private (2–8 guests), it adapts to almost any occasion without you needing to lock in details up front.
Tips for giving a wine experience
- Match the format to the occasion. A relaxed Sunday tasting with lunch suits an anniversary; a focused tasting tour suits an enthusiast.
- Use an open-dated voucher. It removes the stress of picking a date for someone else.
- Add the city. Many recipients build the tasting into a Verona trip — our complete guide to wine tours in Verona and our Verona city guide help them plan around it.
However you choose to give it, a Valpolicella tasting is a gift of time, place and discovery — the kind of present people talk about long after the last glass.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you give a Valpolicella wine tasting as a gift?
Yes. The easiest way is a gift card or experience voucher that the recipient redeems for a private wine tasting or winery visit in Valpolicella near Verona. They choose the date and experience, so there's no need to lock in plans when you buy.
What does a wine tasting gift voucher include?
A typical Enouting experience voucher covers a private tasting tour with a guide and sommelier, including the winery visit and the tasting itself. Some experiences also include lunch at the winery. The recipient simply books the date that suits them.
How does the gift card work?
You purchase a gift card, receive it digitally to pass on, and the recipient contacts us to schedule their experience. It can be applied to tastings in Valpolicella, the Soave–Valpolicella combination, or a Sunday tasting with lunch.
Is a wine tasting a good gift for a couple or anniversary?
It's one of the most popular choices. A private tasting in Valpolicella is intimate, memorable and stress-free to give — ideal for anniversaries, honeymoons, birthdays and weddings, where a shared experience often means more than a physical present.
How much should I spend on a wine tasting gift?
Half-day private tastings start around €250 per person, while experiences that include lunch at a winery run €250–€300 per person. A gift card lets you set the amount and let the recipient choose how to use it.
Where can I buy a winery gift card for Valpolicella?
You can buy a Valpolicella winery gift card directly from Enouting. It is issued digitally, is valid for 12 months from purchase with the date left open, and is redeemable against any of our private tastings and cellar visits in Valpolicella, Soave and Lake Garda. The recipient books the date themselves once they receive it.
Can you gift a cellar visit or winery experience in Valpolicella?
Yes. A cellar gift experience works exactly like a tasting voucher: you buy an open-dated gift card and the recipient redeems it for a private winery visit with a guide and sommelier. Because Valpolicella's most sought-after estates receive guests by appointment, a gift card through a specialist is the easiest way to give a cellar visit — the appointment, guide and sommelier all arrive already arranged.
Is Valpolicella wine a good anniversary or birthday gift?
A tasting experience tends to work better than a bottle for milestone occasions. An anniversary or birthday gift of a private Valpolicella tasting gives a shared day in the vineyards rather than an object — and an open-dated voucher means the couple or recipient picks a date that suits them.
