Vancouver - nice shop to send wine or another a business gift?

February 21, 2013 5:38 AM

I would like to have a business-type gift sent to someone in Vancouver. Have a wine shop or something else to recommend?

I am in the US. My main thought is to find a wine store in Vancouver that could pick out something nice/intersting for me and have it delivered. I need the store to do the selection - I don't know much. Any non-wine ideas also welcome. Thanks.

Here are a couple of nice wine shops that have been very helpful when I have been in. I have no idea if they would deliver.

These guys have a good selection, online ordering, and delivery.

Phone the government liquor store on Cambie (biggest in BC) and speak to a wine consultant.
He/she will give you the best ideas, and you can explain your situation.
You may have to purchase the wine at a different store, but they will help a lot.
