The lineup is not yet set in stone, but this year, Hallmark plans on making their holiday season even more memorable. While viewers enjoy a Hallmark movie, they can also enjoy a Hallmark bottle of wine, which they will deliver.

Viewers can choose from the "Jingle's 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon" with a full texture and dark cherry and chocolate aromas, or a refreshingly crisp "Joy's 2019 Sauvignon Blanc." The wines can be ordered as a pair or in packs of 4, 6, and 12 bottles, and they will be delivered in October.

Meanwhile, fans of the channel are wondering whether the "Good Witch" will return to television for another season. 

The popular television show is currently in its 6th season, but the network is keeping fans on the edges of their seat since they haven't confirmed one way or another what will happen to the show when the current season wraps up.
