Now in Stock: Paulus Wine
Pauline from Southern France, and Paul, Eben Sadie’s assistant winemaker, joined up to create the Paulus Wine Co in 2018.
Last weekend appeared to be quite busy in Hermanus with the Heritage Day public holiday making it a long weekend for many - so it would seem that everyone is keen to get out of their homes for a while to avoid cabin fever! Speaking to local BnB's there is some positive news as they are taking bookings for December so if anyone is planning a trip to Hermanus please be sure to book your accommodation sooner rather than later!
A just-released, very drinkable light red from Doug and Paul of Maanschijn will be my new favourite wine this summer! They say, "It was naturally fermented, followed by a short maceration, then aged in old French oak for 6 months. Deft in nature, yet packing flavour! Light, bright and red-fruited, lifted by a touch of Hanepoot. Sporting a fine structure, this smashable summery red will bring joy to every brunch spread." Only 650 bottles! Blend: 40% Cinsault, 40% Syrah, 20% Muscat d'Alexandrie. Western Cape Wine of Origin. Alc: 12.5%
Thank you for your support - stay safe - see you soon!
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.
