Two Oceans, one of South Africa’s most successful wine exports, sold in over 80 countries, knows most people don’t have time to cook elaborate dishes when friends come round.
News of two women in the US who set up a company called Cookies & Corks that pairs biscuits with wine, inspired the Two Oceans team to try a few combinations of their own.
Two Oceans winemaker Natasha Williams, in love with sushi, thought she’d spoil her dad, Trevor, with an appetising platter of nigiri, California rolls and a spot of sashimi.
She’s a mean pool player, she loves shopping for bags and shoes but if truth be told, she’s really happiest in the country, says Stellenbosch born-and-bred Natasha Williams (29), the new Two Oceans winemaker.
Two Oceans Wines asked popular food fundi Justine Drake to devise a simple but delicious dish with a flash of chilli to show off the fruity and floral notes of its new vintage Pinot Grigio.
