Vilafonté is the first Californian and South African joint wine venture. The vision that brought together the three founding partners, is the culmination of a life-long dream. Founded in 1997, the 42ha property on the bench of the Simonsberg Mountains with its unique vilafontes soils, served as the fuse to our endeavour – an uncompromising determination to produce wines that stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the great wines of the world.
