Generations… You can taste it
The story behind The Winehouse
The Potts family purchased the “Bremer Café” in 2008 and gave it a new lease of life, along with a new name “The Winehouse”. The Winehouse was one of the first collaborative cellar doors in SA, allowing a number of producers to sell their wine from the one premise.
The brands that call the Winehouse home are, Gipsie Jack, Ben Potts Wines, John Glaetzer’s John’s Blend, Heartland Wines by Ben Glaetzer and Meechi Brewing Co.
The Winehouse restaurant has also evolved over time, with the appointment of head Chef Natalie and her team. The Winehouse Kitchen has become well known for producing an excellent selection of high quality meals, using locally sourced produce.
