VINEYARDS
Perfectly positioned at the crest of the
Santa Monica
Mountains and within our own
Saddle Rock-Malibu AVA, our vineyards are indeed special. With the high altitude and separation from the coast, along with an ideal blend of weather conditions and rocky soil it’s the perfect environment for growing premium wine grapes. Today our hillside vineyards consist of approximately 60,000 vines on 65 acres and we are well on our way to reach our goal of 100 acres. We have eight varietals planted, they include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah, Malbec, Grenache, Mouvedre and Viognier.
SEMLER
Created for the Southern California Connoisseur, MFW’s Semler wine offers you the chance to taste what the good life has to offer with wines crafted from grapes grown right on the Semlers’ 65-acre vineyard in Malibu.
SADDLEROCK
These
Central
Coast wines embody what we like to call “Malibu Cool”. MFW’s Saddlerock wines are very approachable, yet superbly chic!
