Recommended wine: Pinotage, Chenin Blanc, Riesling

African works really well 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. You could try Radley & Finch The Profs Pinotage. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 11 dollars per bottle.
