Okay, here is what you need to do...
You've budgeted $50, but don't spend all of that on a bottle of wine. Instead, buy a bottle of Dr. ZenZen Vino Noire ($15), which by the way is quite delicious on it's own, and take the remaining $35.00 and purchase an wine aerator.
Any red wine lover would appreciate an aerator, because it takes any normal red wine and tranforms it into something magnificent.
There are a bunch of different types of aerators on the market, and for the most part, they all work quite well.
Now the little lady has a gift, and she'll be reminded of you everytime she pops a bottle of red, because believe me, she'll use it everytime...it makes that great a difference.
FYI...
Anyone whose spending $50 on a bottle of wine, is trying too hard. I have a lot of friends who drink wine, many of which are quite successful and could afford the $50 bottle, but no one I know pays that kind of cash for one bottle of wine. Not sure the cost really outweigh the benefits. Just my opinion...YMMV.
Good Luck!
