Roodeberg adds a fresh twist to the traditional braai

Roodeberg, South Africa’s iconic heritage wine with a lifetime of stories in every bottle, is best enjoyed around the braai with family and friends.

While Roodeberg has evolved over time since its first release in 1949, the wine remains rooted in tradition and continues to bring people together with its outstanding quality and consistent drinking pleasure.

The new 2021 vintage of the Classic Red Blend is the latest chapter in Roodeberg’s legendary story. Already lauded as an award winning wine with a Gold medal at the 2022 Michelangelo International Wine and Spirits Awards, Roodeberg Classic Red 2021 is vibrant and silky smooth. This superbly textured wine erupts in your glass with aromatic layers of fresh red and dark fruit, hints of spice and dark chocolate. Nuances of cedar oak and dark plums, supported by sleek tannins linger long after the last sip.

This multi-varietal blend works its magic with all your favourite braai staples hot off the coals. A cinch with juicy chops, ribs and chicken, the wine’s fruity, spicy character also goes down beautifully with meat-free alternatives.

Inspired by Roodeberg’s journey as an evolving contemporary wine with a proud heritage, well-known food writer, Ilse van der Merwe of www.thefoodfox.com has given a delicious new twist to the traditional boerewors and braaibroodjie.
