I love buying people things! I don't like to waste money on myself and avoid it when I can. Thus, I prefer to give than to receive.

mateo, great ideas - way beyond my budget! StageyD, I don't like to give gift certificates except to family. Weird, but I don't like for people to know how much I've spent! If I had a larger budget, I'd do it.

Perhaps a Wine of the Month Club.
I'm not sure how pricey that can get.

That's why I prefer to make people stuff. Unless I'm in a dire need of something that's accessible and not so costly (i.e. magnets, etc). Usually I find that by taking the person's interests (whatever they may be) and incoporating them into the card helps. For example, a friend of mine enjoyed Johnny Depp movies so I made her a Christmas card featuring Jack Sparrow. Of course, seeing how it's a 'special someone' I'd be akin to getting a nicer present. I mean, even if it's a gift certificate to a day spa, a great restaraunt. As she likes to drink wine, maybe something to do with that.
I'm kind of stuck as I am presently getting goodies together for my best friend's 21st birthday party. Hopefully, I'll have a creative jolt of engery later on and come up with some better ideas for you.

Probably pretty pricey if it's any decent. And she knows a lot more about wine than I do (which isn't difficult). Maybe a really REALLY nice bottle of wine and some sort of classy wine accessory - whatever that might be?

Its more cost effective if you make it yourself.. plus the extra savings can be spent on more goodies.
If you go into a nice Wine store or even a BevMo... they can help you pick out some nice Red. Then head over to a gourmet chocolate store and pick up some goodies.
You can pick up a basket at a Craft Store. But, it doesn't have to be a basket - any container will do... even a oblong ovenware dish would work... then she could use the container aswell.
