Petrus Vatilifa
It is the name that will catch your eye, ‘Namibian Kiss’.
In today’s feature, we have yet another great wine from the Erongo Mountain Winery.
There is just something subtle about this wine.
Perhaps it is the name that makes it so attractive.
You are most likely to fall in love with it before you even open the bottle.
Appeal is very important in the wine industry.
Wine enthusiasts are always on the lookout for a new bottle to add to their new collection.
So, the best way to lure them in is to make sure your new wine bottle stands out on the shelves.
The Erongo Mountain Winery understood the assignment very well with the Namibian Kiss bottle.
Its bright lettering is eye-catching and hand-attracting.
Not only does one feel at home when holding the bottle, but it will surely make you forget momentarily about the French kiss when drinking it.
‘Namibian Kiss’ is a blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon.
This wine is quite sweet and easy-going on the palate.
It is a full-bodied wine with hints of oak and black fruit, and it has notes of black plums and blackberries on the nose.
It has moderate levels of tannin; however, it is worth noting that you should not drive after consuming this kiss from the land of the brave because the alcohol level stands at 14.5%.
This is the kind of wine you can pop open at any given time of the day.
It has no special occasion because it can fit anywhere.
This wine is best enjoyed with grilled meat or poultry.
Cheddar cheese can be a perfect snack for this blend.
Another thing that can never go wrong as a snack for wine is spicy biltong.
It counters the after-taste that most people wish was not present in some wines.
Next time you are catching up with family and friends, try this local gem as you narrate your beautiful stories to each other.
Enjoy responsibly!
