Zelma long

Zelma is one of the world’s most recognized and revered winemakers and oenologists.  Formerly Chief Winemaker at Robert Mondavi Winery, and Chief Winemaker and CEO at cult-status Simi Winery in California, Zelma co-founded the award-winning winery, Vilafonté, in South Africa.  

Always a pioneer, she continues to inspire us with her genuine, thoughtful, hands-on approach and uncompromising ethos - a real privilege, as she limits her consultancies to a handful of projects around the world.
