Best wines in Kenya and their prices
Every now and then we are celebrating milestones, appreciating how far we have come and endured, treasuring the people who have become part of our lives among other achievements. During these times, knowing the best wines in Kenya and their prices is integral, since buying the best wine could mean you are about to create yet another beautiful memory. Easier said than done, when talking best wines and prices, the first questiong that pops to your mind is what standards are we using to quality the wine as best, alcohol content, grape used to make wine, aging, rating, and reviews, price, where the wine is made or how it is made? Again, how do you select just 11 wines from thousands of wine brands in Kenya or around the world? Well, turns out it is really hard to choose just a few wines and say this is the best but at the same time it is not that difficult to identify some of the best selling and highly rated wines in Kenya. Most of the wines included in this list have been rated either best red wine or best white wines in other parts of the world too.
There are many types of white wine in Kenya but we will narrow down to 11 best wines. Since there are way too many best wines, we pick wines from different countries, from different grape types, from different price ranges and also include aged wines. The list will comprise French wines, Italian wines, South African wines, Chilean wines, Spanish wines wines from Germany, wines from Portugal and also from Moldova. When qualifying the wine as best, we will not necessarily select the most expensive wines since we also have affordable wines in Kenya that have been largely accepted and appreciated due to their quality. I will try to strike a rational balance between expensive and affordable while at the same time select the top-rated wines from the best wine-producing countries.
If you are here, chances are you have a preferred wine type, may it be a red sweet wine, dry wine, white wine, rose wine, sparkling wine or any other type of wine in Kenya.
