Wine recommendations for an aperitif
Something fizzy in a glass is always a good idea as a prelude. You should always start light, usually white, so that you can build on this. Red wine fans can of course also start with a red wine that is not too heavy. In fact, anything that tastes good and is enjoyable is always allowed!
Wine with food
Wine to go with....Perfect harmony of Portuguese and South African wines with food
