Wine & Company - Long Weekends
For the foreseeable future, every weekend is a long weekend for us, but that doesn't mean we are not still sourcing the cool stuff!
We managed to find a case of the famed (and sold out everywhere) 2019 Sons of Sugarland Syrah which is a collaboration of Reenen Borman (of Boschkloof) and his business partners Henk Kotze and Fritz Schoon.
One pick from a single vineyard in Stellenbosch. The fruit was 100% whole bunch fermented, with a total skin maceration time of 13 days then pressed and aged in cement for 10 months before bottling without fining. Perfumed violets and olive brine aromatics. Spicy and firm with a long, textured finish. (Dave Nel/David Cope)

- Monday to Thursday: 9am - 5pm.

Thank you for your support - stay safe - see you soon!
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.
