Nothing beats a good wine coupled with a cheesy snack, good music, delicious food and a great company . This is what many revellers who got the opportunity to grace the Wine in May event at the National Museum in Gaborone enjoyed.

The event was a perfect chill out session after a hectic week for many revellers who needed to just relax and unwind.

The set up was breathtaking with different wines, snacks, food, and cosmetic stalls. There was also beautiful art display while the day's DJs treated the audience to slow classic jams from the Rhythms and Blues (R&B), Pop and Hip Hop taking the audience back to the 80s and 90s.

The wine lovers were also dressed for the occasion, from the dresses, shorts, pants to the skirts and beautiful tops for the women when most of the men went for some beautiful trousers with shirts and or t-shirts. On the other hand, Lactalis Botswana treated revellers to some cheesy snacks.

Their snacks included the salty crackers with some creamy cheese varieties, cheddar and fruits. That was a good gesture as wine and cheese complement each other. Just a sip of a delicious fine wine and cheese melting on one's taste buds is a beautiful delicious experience. Some of the wine stalls that were at the event included a local winery dubbed McErick Winery that was serving their tasty Infinity red blend wines that were not sweet and not too dry either. The other stall that sold different wines was Blue Diamond that sold both the red and white wines.

They sold the dry red, medium sweet red, sweet rose and sweet white wines. The other wines that wine lovers got to taste include Wellington Wines with their Frizzante Blush and Frizzante Blanc together with Duke Sauvignon Blanc 2024 and La Cave. While enjoying their favourite wines, revellers were later in the evening treated to some good Kwaito and Afro Pop music as they danced the night away.
