Bringing a bottle of wine as a gift pretty much says you didn't spend much time thinking about the gift and you pulled this out of the wine cabinet... Unless you dress it well. Then that wine becomes a 'gift', not just a wine bottle. They never have to know you also store a stash of dedorative wine sleeves in your closet. This one looks like you went out in search of the "perfect" congratulations wine cover for the occasion - the gold chinese symbol means "luck", which works great for birthdays, housewarming, new job, enagement, wedding... Pretty much everything except bereavement. (Sure it works for new baby. The new parents will appreciate wine much more than another onesie.)
