BBQ wines from South Africa

In South Africa, BBQ (also called Braai) plays a significant role. Grilling has a long tradition in South Africa. Braai means something like "grill" in Afrikaans. Despite the 11 official languages in South Africa, the word Braai is understood by everyone.

A BBQ in South Africa is usually prepared with a charcoal grill. In the process, meat is mainly slowly roasted over the embers. It is particularly important for South Africans to have conversations. The origin, profession, or age do not matter here. It's all about the sense of unity. 

For a BBQ in South Africa, neither an official occasion nor a special place is needed. It's more about having spontaneous fun, whether at the beach or in your own garden. 

What BBQ wines are there from South Africa?

At BBQs (Braais) in South Africa, there are no limits when it comes to food and aromatic diversity. Typically, beef and lamb are grilled. However, special types of meat like antelope, gnu, and ostrich are not uncommon. But pork is also an option, which is often processed into sausages. Due to the many historical influences of Dutch cuisine as well as the Cape Malays, you often find spices like coriander, ginger, and curry in the BBQ.

For this reason, especially robust red wines and white wines from oak barrels are a perfect match for South African BBQ (Braai). The Winery Holden Manz creates robust red wines and white wines every year, which pair well with BBQ (Braai) in South Africa.
