Home of Slowine and Villiersdorp Wines since 1922.
Villiersdorp Winery is situated in the little Overberg town of Villiersdorp in the picturesque Theewaterskloof Valley, about 100 km from Cape Town. Some people call it the “valley of splendour”. It is part of the newly established Theewaterskloof wine ward in the Overberg region.
Villiersdorp Moskonfyt en Vrugtekoöperasie Beperk was inaugurated on 28 January 1922 with the main purpose to produce “moskonfyt” (grape must jam). This makes Villiersdorp Winery one of the oldest producer cellars in South Africa. This cool climate apple-farming area has long held the promise of producing excellent wine grapes. With the building of Theewaterskloof dam in the early eighties and access to irrigation, a shift occurred towards the production of wine grapes. The result is wines that express the unassuming yet effortless beauty of the valley.
In the early days the emphasis was mainly to produce “moskonfyt” and grape juice concentrate but the very promising quality potential of the cool area famous for apple production, attracted the producers to plant table wine cultivars. With the building of the Theewaterskloof dam grape production took off as water became available for irrigation. The focus has thus changed over the last two decades to produce table wine of exceptional good quality. The cellar therefore invested a lot of energy and capital to bring about the good wines that the consumers can experience today by drinking one of its branded bottle products.
A comprehensive viticulture service is offered to the producers in conjunction with Vinpro to ensure that optimal quality grapes are taken in to feed the different brands. A recent addition to the viticulture function is the procurement of a charting system whereby topographic and climatologic information are made available to the producers to help with planting decisions as well as optimal terroir utilisation.
Villiersdorp Winery is privately owned. Its stakeholders are committed to a production process that is inclusive and beneficial to all personnel, clients and growers. And to bottling wines that deliver generously on value and enjoyment.
