What's happening at Wine and Co. 14 February 2020
The family-owned and family-run Morgenster Estate in Somerset West has a long history dating back 300 years. Best known for their award-winning Bordeaux-style wines, they also produce a few Italian cultivars and extra virgin olive oil. Giulio Bertrand passed away in 2018, and his two daughters, Federica and Alessandra, are continuing with his persistence, tenacity and unflinching commitment to quality and carrying his dream forward.
Come and taste the Morgenster wines this Friday 14 February (3pm - 6pm).
The Marie White was created by winemaker Reino Thiart to celebrate 3 generations of Marie in the family. A carefully blended of Rousanne (elegance), Viognier (aromatics) and Clairette Blanche (fruit-driven flavours), it was fermented in old French oak barrels and is an excellent companion to spicy Asian dishes.
Please contact us for the Marie White.
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.
