Dutch shrimp cocktail

This fresh Dutch shrimp cocktail is a true classic! The soft, salty taste of the shrimps goes perfectly with the Cognato Chenin Blanc , a smooth and fruity alcohol-free white wine from South Africa. The fresh notes of apple and citrus in this alcohol-free wine provide a delicious balance with the creaminess of the cocktail. A simple, yet stylish dish to start your Christmas dinner with.
