Recommended wine: Pinotage, Chenin Blanc, Riesling
Pinotage, Chenin Blanc, and Riesling are my top picks for African. The best wine for African dishes will depend on the dish, but a fruity, aromatic white wine is a safe bet for spicy dishes while pinotage would be a traditional match for South African cuisine. The Warwick Estate Pinotage with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 16 dollars per bottle.

Warwick Estate Pinotage
The wine has a purple hue in the glass. The nose entices with dark cherry, orange peel, cedar wood, clove, licorice, cinnamon and dark chocolate aromas. The palate is full and round with ripe silky tannins.Pairs well with Guinee fowl breast with a port cherry sauce, slow cooked venison stew, and aubergine parmigiana baked in a pizza oven.
