Valentine’s Day Gift Guide 2025

How did February sneak up on us, I’ve barely started on my New Year’s resolutions. February means spring is around the corner (bring on the warm weather) and Valentine’s is upon us, so it’s time to make that romantic gesture for the special someone in your life.

I’ve included some gift ideas, both ‘for him’ and ‘for her’ in case you’re struggling for ideas, which I know almost everyone does when the date gets closer.

A Bottle Of Wine

A bottle of wineA good bottle of wine is always a thoughtful gift (especially when you know exactly what your partner loves), and this selection offers something for every taste. Whether you are celebrating with a sparkling rosé (yes please), a crisp and refreshing still wine, or a full-bodied red, these four choices bring a touch of sophistication to your Valentine’s day with your loved one.

Francois Martenot Cremant de Bourgogne Rose is a stunning pale pink sparkling wine (something both me and Raquel love) with fine bubbles and delicate flavours of redcurrant and raspberry. Citrus notes blend with hints of strawberry, creating a fresh and gorgeous taste. Made using the traditional method, it undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle and is aged for 12 months, resulting in a well-balanced wine that is perfect for toasting a romantic evening.

Rose Calvet Cap D’Agde IGP Côtes de Thau is a fresh tasting rosé grown between the Mediterranean Sea and the hills of the Thau pond. Bursting with intense grapefruit notes and balanced with a hint of lime, it’s light, refreshing and ideal for pairing with salads or Asian dishes (maybe an excuse to order some Thai food for Valentine’s). Produced by Calvet, a French wine brand with over 200 years of history, it captures the essence of summer in every sip.

Nozeco Still Rosé is a great alcohol-free alternative with a beautiful pale pink hue and a nose full of red berry aromas, including strawberry, cherry and wild berries. Lively and well-balanced, it’s made from de-alcoholised wine by Les Grands Chais de France and is completely vegan-friendly. Whether paired with light dishes or enjoyed on its own, it’s a fantastic option for those looking to celebrate without alcohol.

Prestige De Calvet Côtes du Rhône Villages is a rich and full-bodied red, deep ruby in colour and blended from Grenache, Carignan, Syrah and Mourvèdre. This wine is bold and smooth, making it an excellent choice for pairing with roasted meats (did anyone say steak??), rustic dishes and mature cheeses (or…You know…Any cheese). Maison Calvet has been producing wines for over 200 years, and this bottle showcases their expertise with depth of flavour and a well-rounded finish.

 

Bellamie Cherry Liqueur

BellamieBellamie Cherry Liqueur is an elegant aperitif crafted with real fruits and natural ingredients, inspired by the traditional French ‘Guignolet’ liqueur. This vibrant liqueur is a celebration of the cherry tree, infused with its fruit, stones, and blossoms to create a uniquely bold and sophisticated flavour.

On the palate, Bellamie offers ripe cherry notes complemented by undertones of marzipan and a sweet spice finish. Its versatility makes it ideal for sipping over ice, mixing into a Cherry Bellamie Spritz, or crafting a twist on a Sour Cherry Negroni.

Presented in a stunning Art Nouveau-inspired bottle with intricate gold details and a brass-like stopper, Bellamie is more than just a liqueur – it’s a perfect gift or a striking addition to any drinks trolley.

Whether shared as part of a luxurious cocktail or enjoyed neat, Bellamie’s scrumptious cherry flavour is a shout out to the tradition of French apéritifs, now available in the UK.
