Located in the Knorhoek Valley north of Stellenbosch, Muratie dates back to 1685 when it was granted by Simon van der Stel, then Governor of the Cape of Good Hope, to German soldier Laurens Campher. Through the centuries Muratie, one of the oldest wine estates in South Africa, had several other colourful owners and is currently under the stewardship of the Melck family.
Through the ages, Muratie amassed an intimate knowledge of its soils and the special influences on its vines. Each vineyard block is treated with reverence and their wines are a natural extension of the site where they were grown.
In the cellar, Muratie combine tradition and technology to craft products of superior quality with utmost attention to detail.
