YUMMY WISHLIST

FOR THE

Wine Lovers

There is no shortage of wine lovers around as evidenced by all the wine spots and wine shops but what do you get the wino who has enough glasses and knows where to get the wine they love? You have to think outside of the box to answer this question. If you already did and can’t come up with something then we’ve got a list for you so you can skip the thinking and head straight to the store.

1. 3.

THE VON WINE COOLER This is for the wine lover who is tired of stacking their wines right next to their milk or buying ice every time they want to chill their wine in a cooler. The VON wine cooler is here to save your bottles from smelling like the contents of your fridge. It’s compact, about the size of a mini fridge, but can fit up to 56 bottles of wine. Temperature control ranges between 4 to 18°C so you’ll be able to enjoy a perfectly chilled (or warm) glass of wine no matter the weather.

RIEDEL O TO GO WINE TUMBLERS It’s one thing to have a bottle that carries your wine and keeps it cool. It’s another to drink it from plastic cups because no one wanted to spend time individually wrapping the aesthetically pleasing ones in lots of newspapers. Skip all that fuss with these convenient glasses that come with their own cases. Carry as many as you want as haphazardly as you like and they won’t break.

Get one from Hotpoint at Kshs. 42,995.

2. CORKS FROM 412 BRIC A BRAC Here’s one cork that will not fight you to get back in the bottle. These corks are creatively topped with mini models of animals and shaved down so that they fit perfectly into the bottle. Once you’re done drinking all you have to do is firmly press the cork in a place it in your rack or cooler. No fuss and certainly no mess. Order a bunch from their Instagram page at Kshs. 500 each.

4. PERSONALISED SOCKS FROM PURPINK The cold weather has settled in so what better gift to give than a pair of socks with a message only a wine lover can appreciate. They might think you bought them plain old socks until they flip them over and read the quirky message you personally picked. Order your pair at www.purpink.co.ke for Kshs. 850.
