Wine bears a deep historical background dating back thousands of years. Wine is widely made from one or sometimes more varieties of the grape species, such as Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Gamay and Merlot. If one of these varieties of grape is used as the main grape, the result is a varietal wine. Blended wines are not necessarily regarded inferior to varietal wines. Some of the most expensive wines, from Bordeaux and the Rhone Valley regions, are blended from different grape varieties.
Common fruit items in gourmet wine baskets are artichokes, apples, avocados, bananas, grapes, mangoes, lychees, papayas, oranges, lemons, pomegranates, pineapples, strawberries.
Dry and canned foods of a wine basket may consist of chocolate, bread, cheese, coffee, crackers, honey, jam, marmalade, cookies, tea, nuts, soft drinks.
Nonfood items commonly include cash, greeting cards, cut flowers, decorative plants, stuffed animals.
