Valentine’s Day is a day for love – whether it be love for your significant other, your dad, a best friend, or even a neighbor! This day invites us to slow down and profess our endearment for those closest to us. While sending a bouquet of flowers is nice – let’s take it a step further this year. We have compiled the ultimate wish list for him for Valentine’s Day. 

Shiner’s Trail Ale

Take a sip of your Texas roots and indulge with Shiner’s craft beer. 111 years ago, two immigrants brought old-world brewing tactics to Texas and have since created a brand that has spread across America. Shiner beers have been with us during football games, around campfires, at family gatherings, and more. For the lover of  a great craft beer, this refreshing yet nutty Shiner Trail Ale will be the perfect addition to February 14th. What says “love” more than toasting a “Bonfire Brewski” with your admirer. 6-bottle/can (SRP: $8.99) or 12-bottle/can packs (SRP: $14.99)

Picayune Padlock wine

2019 Picayune Padlock, a Napa Bordeaux blend for every day of the week, is full-bodied, yet still approachable to enjoy “whenever”. This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Malbec is perfect for dining al fresco with steak or lamb chops. In the glass, Padlock opens with an intense fuchsia color and aromas of a fall spice medley followed by sage, blackberry, pink peppercorn, dark chocolate and mint. Cheers to love! $37

Basquettes – The Everything Basket

A Basquette is the perfect gift for your grill-master. The gift that keeps giving, the Basquette can be used to air-fry, crisp, roast, rotisserie, dehydrate, grill, smoke and cool.
