First up, the unwooded Chardonnay. Think zesty citrus fruits, melon, papaya and ripe pears laced with honeysuckle notes and a touch of cloves. An unwooded Chardonnay is not only an ideal summer wine, but it is also one of the most versatile food-friendly wines out there. A perfect accompaniment to fresh oysters, prawns, calamari, ceviche, fish on the braai, sushi, chicken on the Weber, cheese and bread … sounds like summer to us! Around R95 from good bottle stores.
Then, there’s the magnificent Cabernet Sauvignon which is also a great summer wine if you drink it slightly chilled (around 14 – 18 degrees). A 2018 Veritas Double Gold medallist, the Cabernet boasts notes of black currants and cherries, mint, roasted coffee beans and tobacco.
And let’s be honest, there’s not much that beats a sunny poolside braai in the summer . juicy steaks, sticky barbecued ribs, wors, lamb chops and beef burgers, all you need is a glass of delicious red wine to complete the occasion. Around R105 from good bottle stores.
