  • Birkenhead-House-Wine-List
    Welcome to the wine list of Birkenhead House. Having spent much of my working life involved with wine, I have tried to create a wine list that has a true representation from the wines in South Africa and balanced with wines of both New World and the Old World in style, providing wines to suit most tastes and palates. I am often asked what my favourite wine is and my answer would be that I really do not have one. There are so many great wines made in South Africa that it depends upon the occasion, what I am eating, the time of year but I think most importantly the company I’m in. I have selected a range of House wines from our surrounding areas to offer a variety of grape types to suit many dishes, which are all available by the glass or bottle. This wine list is a work in progress and hopefully will never be finished. Please also note that some of the vintages offered are rare and we might not carry large quantities. If you have the time look through the list there are some fantastic wines from both individual family producers to large winemaking companies. They all have their place on our list and I have tasted them all. If you would like to talk about a particular wine or need some help selecting, please feel free to ask. However I am a great believer in “Drink what you like, when you like.” Wine is all part of the occasion, the more you enjoy what we have to offer at Birkenhead House the better the wine will taste.

Now talking about wines, the Wine and sprit association of the Great Britain has sponsored the following definition of Wine ―Wine is an alcoholic beverage obtained from the fermentation of the juice of freshly gathered grapes. Fermentation is conducted in the district of origin according to local customs and traditions. To bear the name Wine, the product must come only from grapes. If made from other fruits; the fruit name must be put before the tern Wine eg. Blackberry Wine, Apricot Wine, Fig Wine. Only a small part of the world is Wine producing. This is because the grape will only provide juice of the quality required for conversion into consumable Wine where two climatic conditions prevail. 1. Sufficient sun-shine to ripen the grape 2. Winters that are moderate yet sufficiently cool to give the Wine a chance to rest and restore its strength for the growing and fruiting season.

  • Four Wines from Central Italy
    Four Wines from Central Italy These wines are all from the heart of mainland Italy, roughly halfway between the northern alpine mountains and the southern tip reaching towards Africa. They have been selected to try to show something of the range and diversity of Italian wines and to reflect particular indigenous qualities and traditions. The huge variety of Italian wine is a consequence of over 350 grapes officially granted ‘authorised’ status and a long shoreline and extensive mountains and foothills which provide different altitudes, climates and soil conditions. This selection shows the differences that can be found within a fairly narrow latitudinal range and from a limited number of grape varieties. These differences can be quite pronounced, even from wines made from the same grape. Each wine has been designated either DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata – Controlled Designation of Origin) or DOCG (Denominazione di Origine e Garantita – Controlled and Guaranteed Designation of Origin). The DOG designation system was launched in 1963. Later, the DOCG classification was introduced to provide a top tier of Italian wines. In 2014 there were 332 DOCs and 73 DOCGs. The top level was special because government officials would actually taste the final wines. If they passed the taste test, a band would be affixed around the bottle’s neck to signify approval and prevent anyone tampering with the wine once it had achieved its designation. Within both categories the term ‘Classico’ is used to identify wines produced in the historically oldest part of the designated region according to strict traditional winemaking methods. ‘Classico’ is an indicator of the quality of a wine and suggests that the wine is better than one that does not include this term on its label.
