A gift of a nice bottle of wine is always classy and gives the impression that you care (picking out a "good" wine takes a little effort and time).
Plus, it is more of a "mature" gift. They will respect you for it, unless they don't drink at all.
Find out what kind of wine they like. i.e. white, red, etc. Post back if you want suggestions, I'll bet you get quite a few good ideas.
If you can afford it, a real classy move is to make dinner reservations at a nice restaurant. Make food selection suggestions during the courses and ALWAYS pick the approriate bottle of wine for the particular course. If you go to an 'a la carte-type' restaurant, the wine selections will be a little easier as most will be having similar things. Again, post back for suggestions.
