Wine lovers are easy to buy for in that the gift-giving dilemma can be easily solved with a trip to your, or their, favourite wine shop.

Most shops keep records of customers’ purchases which can make that task much easier.

North Americans will spend $1.21 billion on wine glassware in 2024 , not exactly chump change.

Geoff Last is a long-time Calgary wine merchant writer, instructor, and broadcaster.

He was awarded a fellowship at Napa Valley’s Symposium of Professional Wine Writers for articles that have appeared in this column.

As this will be my final column in 2024 , I would like to wish you all a happy Xmas and New Year's season .
