Charla Bosman has been at Sijnn in Malgas since 2014 and was Tim Atkin’s ‘Young Winemaker of the Year 2022’. She is certainly doing great things and their recently released Varietal Series are superb! Bottled in tiny quantities unfined and unfiltered they really are quite special. Here are Charla’s Tasting Notes:

CHENIN BLANC 2022: A light touch of gold in your glass. Beautiful mandarin, minerality and citrus notes. Textured palate, with hints of orange and salinity. Fine acidity gently rests on your palate. Lovely peach pith, apricots and nuttiness. Gentle honeysuckle and beeswax on the after taste. It is really expressive of the area and it captures the cooler dry area of Malgas. Paired best with most rich dishes ranging from Risotto to Fish and even good with Lamb. Yield: 3-4 tons/ha. Production: 599 x 750ml.

TOURIGA NACIONAL 2019: Beautiful dark red and purple hues. Darker berries, lavender and blueberry perfume on the nose. After a swirl in the glass, darker notes of slate, liquorice and olive tapenade. Charcuterie and savoury notes. On the palate it is a savoury explosion, meets a fine tannin grain and beautiful fresh acidity. Tannins are well integrated but can use a few more months to settle.

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.
