Wine with pork
South African wines are the perfect accompaniment for pork dishes. A fruity Pinotage goes perfectly with pork chops or roast pork and emphasises their juicy flavours. An elegant Chardonnay ideally complements pork fillet in creamy sauces, while a spicy Shiraz harmonises well with grilled pork ribs with BBQ sauce. These wines bring out the diversity of flavours in pork dishes and make every meal a special treat.
