A bottle of wine’s a fine gift, but if you’re looking to give mom a truly immersive experience, consider a private virtual tasting with winemaker Simon Faury of Crown Point Vineyards.

Conducted via Zoom from the company’s vineyards just North of Santa Barbara, the sessions are perfect for a group of oenophiles, and an educational way to raise a glass to the woman who raised you.
