Selection of 5 wines with 2 crystal glasses all in an oversized fabric-lined picnic basket.

Gorgeous set of 2 wine glasses from the Classical Collection Grandioso from Crystalex Bohemia Crystal

- Yalumba Y Series Unwooded Chardonnay from South Australia, Australia - This Chardonnay depicts the Cape Barren Goose, a symbol of an endangered species. Over the years, many birds and animals have sought and found refuge in Yalumba's sanctuary, land dedicated to native wildlife rehabilitation. Fermentation by natural or 'wild' yeast, naturally present in the vineyard has helped shape this wine; think minerality, grapefruit and pineapple flavors.

- 2017 Acentor Garnacha: The 2017 Acentor is another fine vintage of Garnacha from this consistently strong estate. The wine is ripe and nicely balanced, offering up a deep nose of black raspberries, bonfire, dark soil tones, spit-roasted game, coffee grounds and a bit of spice in the upper register.

- La Vieille Ferme Recolte 2017 from Vin de France, France: Commonly acknowledged as one of the best wines for its value by most restaurants, it definitely doesn't disappoint. For 30 years France hasn't had a drier year than 2017, which makes this vintage very rich and velvety. Silky tannins and aromatic persistence makes this wine so easy to drink, you will probably be stuck on this one for a while.

- Casas del Bosque 2017 Reserva Carmenère from the Rapel Valley, Chile: a succulent mouthful of blueberry, ripe dark cherries, sweet plum flavors, smoky vanilla and toasty oak spice flavors on the palate. The wine was aged in oak barrel for 10 months. Fresh acidity on this wine to pair with smoky, braised meats.

- Familia Bastida 2016 Vuela Tempranillo from La Mancha, Spain: Dark berry aromas come with tire rubber harshness. On the palate, this is thick and soupy. Flavors of forced oak and red berry fruits finish green and minty.
