[quote=Anonymous]I think what you are contemplating is a very nice--and generous--gesture that would be appreciated by your hosts, regardless of the number of bottles involved. That said, if you have a sense of what types of wine the host family likes, you may want to consider splurging for one or two very nice--and memorable--bottles rather than a collection of good but somewhat interchangeable bottles. You may wind up spending a little bit less at the end of the day, and at the same time may give a gift that would be really appreciated--especially if you gift a bottle that someone wouldn't necessarily purchase on their own. For reference, I'm thinking of really nice wines from Bordeaux, or a top-rated Napa Cab., or something similar (Northern Rhone, top Burgundy, etc.). There are plenty of wines like this in the $100-$200 range and that could be cellared for 10-20 years. The tricky part is that you have to be confident in what the recipient likes. Do you have a sense of that?[/quote]
