What's happening at Wine and Co. 8 November 2019
The Gabriëlskloof site was chosen for its potential to make high-quality wines with a distinctive character. All vineyard work is done by hand and their winemaking philosophy is minimal intervention: only taking action where absolutely necessary as they believe this is the only way to give prominence to and reflect the terroir of the vineyards.
Come and taste these good-value wines this Friday 1 November (3pm - 6pm).

Anthony Hamilton Russell offered to help Berene Sauls establish her Tesselaarsdal label after she had been working at the Estate for 15 years, all the while she was learning various aspects of the wine business. Tesselaarsdal has been a resounding success and is now being exported to six countries, as well as featuring on winelists in South Africa’s top restaurants.

About Us
Have you ever heard about a great wine but could never find a bottle for yourself (to share with friends, of course)? Well, the team at Wine & Company do all the hard work for you! We visit wine farms and attend tastings to find, taste, and then stock wine from the smaller Estates and independent winemakers who buy grapes and produce outstanding wine under their own labels - much the same as the French negociants have been doing for centuries. Given that these winemakers make wine in such small quantities, sometimes just a single barrel, their wine will never be found on the shelves of the major retailers, but only in specialist shops like Wine & Company on High Street, Hermanus.
In addition to the great selection of well-known wines and MCC's, we also stock local craft gin and beer, French Champagne, La Trappe Trappist Ales as well as whisky and other spirits. Wine & Company (established in 1998 by Bartho Eksteen) has a well-earned reputation for stocking hard-to-find small-batch wines and we strive to continue this great tradition. If you purchase a bottle of wine from us and it is faulty or you are not satisfied with the quality, we will gladly replace the bottle and return the faulty wine to the winemaker.
Feel free to contact Wine & Company if you need a particular wine and we will do our best to source it for you. We are also able to ship wine locally and to most countries so do ask about international shipping.
