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 Fram Wines Pinotage with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 30 dollars per bottle.

Fram Wines Pinotage
An intriguing blend of ripe red fruit, with fennel and dill-like aromas on the outer edge of the flavor profile. The palate is packed with a very fine and distinct tannin adding vibrancy to balance the concentration of the fruit.
