Villiera has been unlocking the marvels of nature to produce distinctive wines and Cap Classique sparkling wines for decades.

Villiera Wines is a family owned and run winery in the Stellenbosch, South Africa. They are a pioneering quality wine company committed to preserving the environment and have been unlocking the marvels of nature to produce distinctive wines and Cap Classique sparkling wines for over three decades.

Specialists in the Cap Classique category, their prestigious cuvees have been consistently recognised for their outstanding quality. Their flagship Villiera Monro Brut has been rated one of the 50 best wines in South Africa according to the SAWi ‘Grand Wines Collection’ (GWC), a wine selection that highlights South Africa’s best selection of consistently top-scoring wines. The result represents a condensed window of a wine’s achievements at multi-national blind tastings over multi-vintages. Only wines with a score of 93+ out of 100 were included in the ‘Collection’.

The award-winning Villiera Tradition Brut was the first Cap Classique produced by Villiera in 1984, with the help of Champagne producer Jean Louis Denois. Tradition Brut Rosé soon followed in 1987 as the first bottle fermented Rosé produced in South Africa.
