Wine gift box
1200 gsm grayboard, linen wrap, fitted bottle cradle200 minimum · 10 to 14 business daysA wine gift box is a rigid presentation box built on 1200 gsm grayboard with a fitted interior cradle that holds a single bottle upright and away from the box wall, so the bottle isn't relying on the outer shell alone for protection in transit or on a shelf. It's a step up from a wine bag or soft carrier specifically because the rigid construction and fitted cradle read as a proper gift, not just a way to carry the bottle home. We produce them from 200 units, ready in about 10 to 14 business days after proof.
When to choose it, and when not to
Choose a rigid wine box for a retail gift set, a winery's direct-to-consumer shipment, or a corporate gift where the box gets kept or reused after the bottle comes out. The fitted cradle and rigid walls are what separate this from a bag someone throws away the same day.
Choose our wine bag or a padded shipping carrier instead if the box is purely functional transit packaging for a case order. The rigid construction and fitted cradle cost meaningfully more per unit than a soft carrier built just to get bottles there safely.

Questions people ask
Will the fitted cradle hold the bottle securely during shipping, not just on a shelf?
The cradle is built to keep the bottle from shifting in transit. For direct-to-consumer shipping specifically, we'd recommend also testing with your carrier, since glass and shipping stress vary a lot by route.
Can this hold two bottles instead of one?
Yes, a two-bottle version with a divided cradle is available. Tell us your bottle dimensions and we'll size the interior fit.
Does the box work for non-standard bottle shapes, like a short spirits bottle?
The cradle is built to your specific bottle. Send us the dimensions of what you're packaging and we'll fit the interior to match rather than using a generic wine bottle template.
Can we add a magnetic closure instead of a plain lift-off lid?
Yes, magnetic closure is an available upgrade over the standard two-piece lift-off construction.
What's the difference between this and your spirits presentation box?
They're built on similar rigid construction principles. The spirits presentation box is tuned for shorter, wider bottle shapes; this one's cradle is proportioned for a standard wine bottle's height.
How does the price compare to a soft wine bag at the same volume?
The rigid box costs more per unit than a soft bag because of the board, fitted cradle, and assembly labor. We can quote both side by side so you can weigh the presentation against the cost.
