Recommended wine: Pinotage, Chenin Blanc, Riesling

African can be paired with Pinotage, Chenin Blanc, and Riesling. 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.
