A pair of great wines from the Hemel en Aarde have just been released! Made by Nadia Newton Johnson, we now have the Swinsian Chardonnay and Artjiesvlei Pinot Noir, and here are Christian Eedes’ notes…

Swinsian Chardonnay 2022: Grapes from the Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley called Siberia, originally planted by Tokara. Matured for 11 months in barrel, 30% new. Full malolactic fermentation. Lemon, a hint of orange, oatmeal and some yeasty complexity on the nose. The palate has good depth of fruit, a creamy texture, well integrated acidity and a gently savoury finish. Alc: 13%. Christian Eedes’ rating: 93/100.

Artjiesvlei Pinot Noir 2022: Grapes from a south-facing vineyard on decomposed granite and clay. 15% whole-bunch fermentation; 30% new oak. Red cherry, a trace of musk, cured meat and white pepper on the nose. The palate is voluptuous – the fruit is deep and sweet, the acidity bright and the tannins powdery, the finish long and gently savoury. Alc: 14%. Christian Eedes’ rating: 95/100.

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 independent specialist shops like Wine & Company on High Street, Hermanus.

In addition to the great selection of well-known local wines and MCC's, we also stock craft gin and beer, imported wines, French Champagne, Belgian 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 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.
