Most wine enthusiasts will find their best pairings with foods like pizza, chocolate, meats, and popcorn, just to mention a few.
But, did you know shortbread can also be more delicious when paired with the right wine?
A first for South Africa, McGregor Winery in the Western Cape has recently launched a first of its kind in South Africa - the McGregor wine range and shortbread pairing.
In a statement, the winery stated that the small village of McGregor and the vineyards surrounding it are situated at the foothills of the Riviersonderend mountains, and that the rural area surrounding the village is characterised by a rugged landscape and a variety of fauna and striking flora just waiting to be discovered.
