White Wine
| Nearly a third of vines planted in South
Africa are Chenin Blanc, where it is also called Steen. Chenin Blanc
produces a wine that is a very pale straw colour boasting a nose of
lemon-grass, melon and floral aromas with a slight kiss of honey. It is
a dry, medium body white wine with crisp acidity and a clean citrus
finish. A great accompaniment to lemon chicken, mango salad, lobster
bisque; pork loin baked with apples in brandy. |

Red Wine
| In 1925, Abraham Izak Perold developed a
grape variety by cross-pollinating Pinot Noir and Cinsaut(often called
Hermitage). Today called Pinotage, this early ripening varietal produces
a wine with a medium red to purple colour with aromas and flavours of
plum, cherry, cassis, spice and red and black berries. By allowing this
wine to age in the cellar for a short period of time it will develop
some intriguing earthy, almost barnyard characteristics. Serve with
medium to full flavoured foods such as meat pies, pork risotto,
barbecued ribs, venison, ratatouille, red meats with light curry
seasonings, rich bean soups, tuna, shark steaks, grilled burgers and
prime rib. |
