Wine and food are – as Jamie Oliver would put it – ‘best mates’. When perfectly paired, wine and food create a combination of tastes that resonate on multiple levels, transforming an ordinary dining experience into an extraordinary one.
That’s why this winter you’ll find Radford Dale teaming up with some of South Africa’s most exciting chefs, discovering how they would perfectly pair their favourite Radford Dale wine from their restaurant’s wine list, with one of their own stand-out dishes.
And if you book a table to dine out at any of our partner restaurants before 31 October, you’ll receive a gift voucher towards all Radford Dale wines, and you could even win a free case!

In other words, everyone's a winner ;)

"I am pairing the Radford Dale Organic Higher Purpose Cabernet Franc with the Springbok Medallion and Fillet, with pistachio and forest mushroom & poppyseed sauce because of the firm and fine restrained tanins, ripe red fruit and light herbal spice.

"The Radford Dale Vinum Gamay Noir is such an approachable wine, lightly oaked with a hint of spice and tart cherry and red berry nuances.The flavours of the roast duck breast enhance the fruitiness of the wine and the wines acidity cuts through the richness of the duck"
Chef Ashley Moss & Jennifer Hugé's favourite pairing
"The tension of acidity of the Radford Dale Organic Semillon pairs extremely well with our delicate kingklip dish, where the slight honeyed flavour complements the umami-saltiness in the dashi broth, and the minerality of the wine enhances the flavour of the coastal plant elements of the dish (spekboom, samphire and salty fingers), really bringing out the essence of sea in the plate."

"This 10-year-old Radford Dale Organic Freedom Pinot's vibrant red fruit and developed character beautifully balance the Sake Steamed Pork dish’s umami and sweetness, while its acidity cuts through the richness of the jowl."
