Is it too early to get excited about the long weekend we have ahead of us? I think not! Sweet wine is one of those things can never get old, and make the wine drinking experience all the more enjoyable. If you're wondering what to do this weekend, how does a picnic with friends at Karura forest with two or three bottles of these delicious sweet wines:
1. Asconi
This red wine that is indigenous to Moldova (a small country in Southeastern) is perfect for those people with a super sweet tooth because it's sweet enough to give you a sugar rush. The alcohol percentage is also a tad bit higher than most sweet wines and will be perfect for those ready to have a good weekend. What's more, the bottle is very artistic and resembles the bark of a tree and is available in most liquor stores in Nairobi for around Ksh.1,000.
2. Four Cousins
This sweet wine (can be red, white or rose) is a South African wine that is super delicious and very affordable. The name of the wine is because the four founders are actually cousins! You can get a 750 ml bottle at just Ksh. 750.
3. Fragolino Rosso
This delicious Bulgarian red sweet sparkling wine is so sweet you can actually think you're drinking a fruit juice! This is perfect for those who are not fan of the alcohol sting of most alcoholic drinks. You can get a 750 ml bottle for Ksh. 800 or less.
4. 4th Street
This is a South African naturally sweet wine ( come red, white and rose). The red wine is the one that appeals to me the most. You can get a 750 ml for as low as Ksh. 750.
5. Carlo Rossi
The sturdy glass jug is usually visually attractive. It's a Californian wine that was founded by a man named Carlo Rossi. It has been in the market for well over 40 years and you can get a jug for Ksh.1,400.
