Have you ever been stuck for what to buy as a gift for someone?

Many times you know that the person entertains, but you are really not sure what they drink.  The safest bet is to buy them a nice bottle of wine.  Contrary to popular belief, great wines do not need to cost a fortune.

It was this in mind that drove us to reach out to Michael Bray, the founder of Passion Vines. Below is his top 10 list of best gift wines for this season.
