Six unusual Christmas gifts for the wine lover in your life

The educational one

Perfect for the wine-lover who is just about to start working their way up through the WSET qualifications, wine writer Rebecca Gibb has just launched her own jigsaw puzzle company (what, you haven’t?). So far there are two puzzles in the portfolio; a Scotch version and a Bordeaux.

This 500-piece puzzle of Bordeaux is the perfect way for wine lovers to navigate the historic wine region. The recipient will be able to get to grips with the area’s numerous appellations and sub-regions, perhaps over a glass or two of claret to really get in the spirit.

Price: £17.99

Where to find it: Available from www.bamboozled.games, Etsy, The Wine Society and The Whisky Exchange.
