A Taste of South Africa

On Good Morning America this past Friday, Matt Lauer had a taste of South Africa. He had the good fortune of talking with Giada Delaurentis, who was full of ideas for enjoying the delicious wines from the region. South African wine is becoming quite popular these days. The wines are interesting, flavorful and unique. I've found the wines to be particularly food-friendly, and a nice addition to the wine menu. I recently tried a Pinotage that I liked quite a bit; it's a light red that has just enough spice, without being over powering. If you're interested in trying some of the South African wines, you're in luck. We carry a selection of many South African wines. Barbara is originially from South Africa, so she has first hand experience pairing the wines with native flavors. Whether you are looking for something for a special occasion, or just a weeknight dinner, we can help you pick one that complement your menu perfectly. Cheers!
