Wine Talk

A real central heater for the colder months – autumnal, earthy veg, succulent chicken and warming spice. Great as a starter or hearty enough to make a meal on its own.

This simple meat-free starter or supper showcases earthy autumnal mushrooms with a touch of Spanish heat.

Simple, tasty and a superb match with a beautiful bottle of vegan certified Parés Baltà Blanc De Pacs.

This isn’t a tart in the traditional sense – more like a light mousse that simply melts in the mouth. I first fell in love with it in a small restaurant in Alba in Italy's Piedmont region.

We don't really need a reason to discount five of our favourite bottles for the next few days.

But here are some reasons why you should snap them up before the end of the week!

This hearty vegetarian dish was first served to us by Ardi Bardenhorst back when he was head winemaker at Rustenberg.

Now he has his own estate out in the Swartland and his sumptuous 'The Curator Red' is just the ticket to accompany it.
