Never before has there been such a supply of beverages to accompany our meals. Each and every one tries to find its way in the complex labyrinth of taste, in order to establish itself in as many food cultures as possible.

Through its excruciatingly difficult development pinotage has constantly adapted itself and been subjected to the positive and negative input from the global wine lovers and connoisseurs. This multitude of opinions has resulted in a wide variety of styles and multi-purpose wines, which fit perfectly into every food culture around the globe.

Today is the perfect moment to share pinotage’s multicultural adaptability to food. We have tried to match, in an accessible manner, the wide variety of pinotages with global staple foods and signature dishes.
