This holiday season Swirl Wine Bar & Market has taken "shopping local" to new level. Bottles of wine made by passionate New Orleanians, accompanied by holiday ornaments handcrafted by local artists with contributions to area non-profits, these unique packages perfect for those looking to do something meaningful with their holiday gift giving.
A Gift From the Heart
The 2008 Moises Vieux Carre Pinot Noir is made by local doc James Moises, with 2008 representing one of the finest vintages
Oregon has ever seen. As a tribute to his native
New Orleans, James has named this combination of two of his favorite vineyards "Vieux Carre" and only produced 100 cases. Add a handcrafted wood and glass ornament featuring our treasured fleur de lis from our friends David Porretto and Paulette Lizano plus a donation to
Steve Gleason's Initiative Foundation that supports ALS research and give a gift from the heart.$65
A Gift with Soul
The 2009 Vending Machine Wines Double Shotgun is a tribute to the
New Orleans architectural icon, the double shotgun house, made by local wine producers Monica Bourgeois and Neil Gernon, from some of the top vineyards in
California. With only 150 cases produced, this blend of Cabernet Franc and Petite Verdot with its shotgun house label by artist Grant Schexnider is unique on its own, but when you combine it with a handcrafted wooden shotgun house ornament by Shaun Aleman and a contribution to the
Preservation Resource Center, you have a truly special gift with
New Orleans' soul. $60
