Who says you need a special occasion to treat yourself? A weekend self-indulgence night is the perfect way to unwind, recharge, and celebrate yourself—because you deserve it. Whether you’re pampering yourself with a spa session, binge-watching your favorite series, or diving into a good book, the right wine can make the night even more special. Here are the best wine picks to complement your ultimate night of self-care and relaxation.
1. Bubble Bath & Bubbles: Blanc de Noirs
Nothing says luxury like soaking in a warm bubble bath with a glass of sparkling wine. Instead of traditional Champagne, try a Blanc de Noirs, made from Pinot Noir or Pinot Meunier. This Champagne Charles Tibert Blanc de Noirs Brut offers an alluring depth while still being crisp and refreshing. Light some candles, play your favorite chill playlist, and let the bubbles (both kinds) work their magic.
2. Movie Night & Comfort Food: Pinot Noir + Gamay
If your ideal night involves getting cozy with a classic rom-com or an intense drama, Leroy Coteaux Bourguignons 2022 is your perfect companion. A blend of Pinot Noir and Gamay, this wine has the smooth, velvety texture of Pinot Noir with the bright, vibrant fruitiness of Gamay. The lively red berry flavors and refreshing acidity make it a fantastic match for buttery popcorn, a charcuterie board, or even a decadent slice of chocolate cake. It’s the ideal wine to complement the emotional rollercoaster of your favorite film, giving you the perfect balance of elegance and fun.
3. Deep Thoughts & Journaling: Aged Barolo
Sometimes, the best company is your own thoughts. If you’re reflecting, setting goals, or simply journaling about life, an aged Barolo like Tenuta L'Illuminata La Morra Tebavio Barolo 2007 sets the perfect mood. Its layers of complexity and firm structure make it a thought-provoking wine to sip slowly as you let your mind wander.
4. Guilty Pleasure Reading & Dessert: Viognier
For a reading night that feels indulgent yet refined, a Viognier is an excellent choice. This Domaine de la Janasse Viognier 2021 is a full-bodied aromatic white wine with lush stone fruit flavors like apricot and peach, complemented by floral and honeyed notes. It’s rich enough to feel luxurious but crisp enough to keep you turning the pages. Pair it with creamy cheeses, roasted nuts, or a light almond pastry for the perfect cozy read-and-sip experience.
5. Dance Party for One: Mencía
Who says you need a crowd to have fun? Turn up your favorite playlist, dance like no one’s watching, and pour yourself a glass of Palacio de Arganza Marqués de Montejos Selección Mencía 2020. With its lively acidity, juicy red fruit, and subtle floral notes, this Spanish red delivers a burst of energy with every sip, making it the ultimate pick for a spontaneous living room concert.
If you’re feeling it, this is the one. Or, honestly, any wine will do the trick. 💃
Final Thoughts: Celebrate Yourself
Being single doesn’t mean you have to wait for someone else to make the night special—because you already have everything you need. Whether you’re pampering yourself, reflecting on your goals, or just having fun, the right wine is there to enhance the moment. So go ahead, pour yourself a glass, and toast to the most important person in your life—you.
Cheers to self-love, relaxation, and a weekend of indulgence! 🍷
