There is no global standard for how to enter gift packs into standardized databases. Bottlebooks has therefore developed and agreed conventions with retailers and distributors using Bottlebooks. Follow the guides below on how to enter gift packs into Bottlebooks.

Gift packs with multiple wines

For gift packs with multiple wines, enter each wine individually. Additionally, enter information for the gift pack using the following approach.
