When it comes to family recipes that bring everyone to the table, few dishes hit the mark like a good, hearty butter chicken. For Anrico Solomons, our talented young winemaker at Strandveld Vineyards, this dish is a beloved classic — one that’s been enjoyed at his home countless times.
What makes this recipe truly special is how it captures the spirit of the rugged southern tip of Africa where our vineyards thrive: bold, vibrant, and full of personality. The creamy tomato and spice-filled sauce is balanced beautifully by the rich, structured notes of our Strandveld Syrah.
