The booziest advent calendars to toast the holiday season 2024 Edition
Wine advent calendars 2024, along with champagne advent calendars and boozy advent calendars may be the highlight of December for me. Ok, besides the shopping, holiday parties, fashion and mince pies. They remind me of being a kid; the advent calendar not the wine. About getting excited about opening a new window each morning to see what chocolate shape would be behind the door. Now at the end of each day in December I look forward to opening each door to see what new wine, sparkling wine or champagne I can try. But where do you get wine advent calendars and sparkling wine advent calendar for 2024? Of course I found the best of them! These are the best adult advent calendars 2024 I’ve found so far both online and in stores. Time to order and get pouring!

Wine advent calendar options
The first option is to buy one of the many options online or in stores. Some of the varietals and vineyards in these adult advent calendars will hopefully be great new finds for you. Others might be misses that go into the Winter sangria but the fun’s trying something new and hopefully finding a new varietal or 2 that you like.
Another option is to make your own advent calendar. As shipping can get expensive. This has the benefit of being able to curate your own selection. Just buy an adult advent calendar bottle holder and add your own bottles. However, this takes the surprise out if it’s for you but is a super cute idea if you’re gifting someone else.
Are wine advent calendars expensive to ship?
Most of these wine advent calendars on this best wine advent calendars list have surprisingly affordable shipping considering how heavy they are. But if you’d rather go and pick them up in person and not pay for shipping, I’ve listed a store you can do that too to get all of the festive feels.
How much do wine advent calendars cost?
There’s not a huge range in these boozy advent calendars pricing. They range from $98.25 to $169 but range from having 7-24 bottles.

Where can I find wine Advent calendar? These online and physical stores have the best wine advent calendars for 2024. They’re a trend that’s only been around a few years but choices are rapidly expanding and these are the boozy treats that caught my eye. Plus a lot of them are half bottles rather than single glass size and more is always a good thing when it comes to wine!
Sparkling Wine, Champagne & Wine Advent Calendars 2024 That Ship
These are the best wine advent calendars for 2024 that ship. So get them or gift them and get ready to try something new this holiday season.
Vintage Wine Estates Wine Advent Calendar 12 Nights Wine $107
Where are my wine lovers? What’s great about this wine advent calendar is that there’s a really good mix of white, red and even a rosé wine. This advent wine box has 12 x 375ml (half) bottles, not the tiny single glass bottles. If you’re not a fan of surprises, this adult advent calendar tells you exactly what’s inside including the varietal and vineyard.
From buttery Chardonnays, to crisp Pinot Grigio’s and jammy reds, it’s pretty hard to not at least find a few wines you like. Serve the other unopened bottles to guests to make it sound like you have a really well stocked wine fridge or cellar!
What’s in the QVC 2024 wine advent calendar:

Best mixed wine advent calendar 2024 | Vinebox 12 Nights of Wine 2024 edition $129-199
Where better to get a wine advent calendar from than a company that specializes just in wine. There’s also 12 bottle and 24 bottle options. This boozy advent calendar was a hit last year and you can already order the 2024 wine advent calendar. They’ll start shipping mid October.
I will say it’s more of a wine tasting gift box than an advent calendar though. As there are no doors to open, so no surprises each day. The wines are not numbered and are all laid out in full view.
What makes it even better this year is that it had a makeover for a more elevated look. It now comes in a gift-worthy flat box with a magnetic closure and there are 3 options with both international and domestic wines:
- The Coastal Holiday Collection featuring 12 wines.
- The European Holiday Collection featuring 12 wines.
- Combine the two for the ultimate wine lover’s Advent: 24 Nights of Wine.
The European Holiday collection includes wines from Italy, France, Spain and Portugal. The Coastal Holiday collection features hand-picked wines from America’s celebrated wine country.
Honestly, the photos don’t do it justice. The Vinebox wine advent calendar is so beautifully presented and would also make a great gift. I’ve popped mine in the fridge but will update this with reviews as soon as I’ve started working my way through them. I’ve never had a chilled red before, so I’m excited to find something new as normally I’m a Chardonnay and rosé wine girl.
Best sparkling wine advent calendar 2024 $129
This boozy advent calendar is perfect for counting down the 12 days of Christmas with 12 mini split bottles of sparking wine. The bubbly varietals in this sparkling wine advent calendar 2024 include brut, Prosecco and cuvée from Chandon, Gemma di Luna, Freixenet, Ruffino and more.
Personally I feel a bit cheated that there’s only 12 bottles not 24 but on the plus side it keeps the price and calories down. Shipping’s also only $15 in the US. They’re available to pre-order now and will ship in November but once they’re gone, they’re gone.
Wine Advent Calendar 2024 $179 from Give Them Beer
If you prefer wine to bubbles these 12 bottles are for you. Even better, these bottles are half bottle size (375ml). There’s not a single serve bottle in sight. There’s a mix of popular red and white wine varietals including merlot, pinot noir, cabernet, sauvignon blanc, chardonnay, pinot grigio from well known wineries like Francis Coppola, La Creme, Elouan, and Kendall Jackson. This festive wine advent calendar is available now.
Aldi’s Wine Advent Calendar 2024
This hasn’t been released yet but should be available from November 3rd 2024. Since it’s always one of the most popular wine calendars I’ll add it as soon as I get my eyes on it.

Best Choose Your Own Wine Advent Calendar 2024 | Choose-Your-Own Harry & David™ Wines – 12 Bottles $219.99
If you’re as particular about wines as I am you’ll appreciate this option. Now this isn’t technically an advent calendar but is easy to curate and create your own with. Harry & David wines allows you to choose 12 bottles to create your own wine advent calendar. It’s one of the most expensive options on this list but it’s the only one with FULL size wine bottles.
This unique offering allows you to choose from their best wines, from robust reds to elegant whites and even some sparkling wines. I’m tempted to buy 2. One for us and one to gift. It’s the perfect gift for oenophiles.
They don’t come in a display case or hidden behind advent calendar windows. So I suggest getting something like the wine tree to store them or gift them.
