Wine and Co - a long wait...
While Hermanus is still a bit quiet, things seem to be looking up and it has really been wonderful to see our regular customers in the shop again! The past weekend was quite busy with local tourists coming into town from Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Cape Town so we hope it is a sign of a 'normal' holiday season to come. The whales are making their appearance too, and as always, with our new trading hours, please make sure you are stocked up for every 'long weekend'.
THE SADIE COLLECTION
The saying is "good things come to those who wait" and after what we have all been through this year (so far) it really is good to start receiving the sought-after allocation wines. Some of them have already been taken up by our loyal customers so if there are any of the Sadie range that you are looking for please contact us soon! Fastest fingers etc...
We are open Monday - Thursday: 9am - 5pm.
A reminder of our new website here.
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.
