Muratie Wine Estate - Stellenbosch, Cape Town

Muratie Wine Estate, located in Stellenbosch, Cape Town, is one of South Africa’s oldest wine estates, with a rich history dating back to 1685. The estate is known not only for its fine wines but also for its deep connection to South Africa’s winemaking heritage. Muratie’s legacy began when it was granted to a German soldier, Laurens Campher, who planted the first vines. Over the centuries, Muratie has passed through various hands, each owner adding to its character and tradition. Today, it remains one of the few estates in the Cape Winelands where the sense of history is palpable in every corner.

Muratie Wine Estate is renowned for producing a variety of high-quality wines, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay. However, it is perhaps best known for its flagship red blends and fortified wines. The estate's vineyards, nestled on the slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain, benefit from the region’s unique terroir, which contributes to the complexity and depth of the wines. The farm's rustic charm, with its old-world cellars and vine-covered buildings, provides a beautiful setting for wine tastings and tours.

One of Muratie’s unique aspects is its commitment to preserving the historical charm of the estate. Visitors can explore the ancient cellars, which are still filled with cobwebs and old oak barrels, offering a glimpse into the past. The estate’s tasting room, set in a centuries-old building, invites guests to relax and enjoy the estate’s wines while soaking in the ambiance of this historic property. In addition to wine, Muratie is also famous for its estate-produced olive oils and locally sourced farm products.

The estate offers various wine tasting experiences, including guided tours of the vineyards and cellars. There is also a restaurant on-site, serving delicious meals that complement the estate’s wines. Muratie regularly hosts events, such as music concerts, art exhibitions, and picnics, making it a popular destination for both wine enthusiasts and those seeking a relaxing day out in the Stellenbosch countryside.
