Saturday | Sunday Weekend Tasting: Morgenster Lourens River Valley

Here’s a reminder that with access to The Valley still being quite difficult - but not impossible - we are helping the Bosman Hermanus guys by being their ‘Tasting Room in Town’ and have some of their Hemel en Aarde wines available to taste (and purchase) in our shop. Please do stop in to taste their wines…

Saturday | Sunday Weekend Tasting: Morgenster Lourens River Valley

This weekend we will be tasting the Lourens River Valley red blend (Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot) from Morgenster. Made in a fruit-driven, approachable style and aged in French oak for over 12 months, this complex wine offers flavours of cassis, black cherry and earthy spice. Medium to full-bodied with seamless tannins and wonderful acidity to complement a variety of meals.

Stop in over the weekend to try the LRV…

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, 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.
