DIEMERSDAL PASSION FRUIT SAUVIGNON BLANC 2017, R54.99, with the grilled hake with lemon and chilli on page 60
The whole hake has come off the braai and as it is sliced open, appetising aromas of fish, leeks, lemon and garlic emerge. Pour your Passion Fruit Sauvignon Blanc into a glass and savour an explosion of tropical fruits. And now, let’s taste! Both the wine and the dish are medium-bodied and there is a palate-pleasing mingling of passion fruit, gooseberry, granadilla and honeysuckle from the wine along with the leek, lemon, red chilli and garlic of the dish. The wine has a hint of sweetness, which is a neat balance for the heat from the chilli.
