A Collective of Craft, Wine, and Innovation
At The Village Winery, tradition meets expertise. From winemaking to specialised equipment and distinctive wines, our community brings together the people and tools that shape exceptional wine.
About Us
The Village Winery is a collaborative hub based at the historic Masons Winery in Paarl. Here, passionate producers and industry specialists work side by side, sharing knowledge, resources, and a commitment to exceptional wine.
Our community brings together three complementary businesses. Masons Winery provides the foundation, rooted in tradition and craftsmanship. Viento Wines adds a distinct voice through carefully produced wines that express character and place. Bacchus Equipment supports the craft with specialised tools and expertise that help wineries perform at their best.
Together, they form The Village Winery: a place where winemaking, innovation, and collaboration come together.

Masons Winery is where the story begins. Rooted in Paarl's winemaking tradition, it provides the cellar, space, and expertise that anchor The Village Winery. Here, craftsmanship, heritage, and modern techniques come together to produce wines that reflect both place and passion.
Viento Wine
Viento Wines focuses on expressive wines that capture balance, elegance, and authenticity. Each bottle reflects careful vineyard selection and a commitment to producing wines that are both distinctive and approachable.
Bacchus Equipment
Bacchus Equipment supplies specialised equipment and expertise to wineries and producers. By supporting the technical side of winemaking, Bacchus helps ensure that every stage of production runs smoothly and efficiently.
