Gifts for Men: New Hot Items

Wine for the Golfer
Does your golf-loving guy have every putter on the planet? Well, here’s another way to make his holiday a hole-in-one. Debuting in the U.S. from famed golfer Nick Faldo, his own line of golf-themed wines from Australia, of course. Available in Shiraz, Sauvignon Blanc and soon…Cabernet Sauvignon. All a steal at $15 each; www.wine-searcher.com.

Card
If there’s a way to personalize a gift without another level of wrapping (and cost), I’m the first one to sign up. Cardstix is the wave of the future beginning with holiday gift giving and beyond. It’s an adhesive card that sticks right on your gift, bag, basket or bottle of wine. Brilliantly culturally sensitive, the collection offers motifs for both Christmas and Hanukkah, in addition to designs for baby, kids, tweens, grown-ups, weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs and wine. While I love Cardstix for dressing up dad’s Nick Faldo wine bottle above, it’s also a great choice for ID-ing any holiday package—especially when those tiny little gift tags get lost under the boughs of the tree. One package includes two stickers, $2.50; www.cardstixcollection.com or available at 200 retailers nationwide. (Customization also available on-line.)
