Hi, My name is XXXXX XXXXX X am your Etiquette Expert.

Yes. It is appropriate to take a small gift such as a bottle of wine. You might also consider a small gift of flowers for the host. Also consider sending a thank-you card after the dinner.

Thank-you for being so considerate. If you have any related follow up questions i would be pleased to answer them for you.
