"Nowhere else in this beautiful wineland of ours are you so strongly
reminded that the history of wine here is as old as South Africa itself.
Here you can once again become aware that the art of wine-making arose
on those pieces of earth where people with an exceptional joy in life
had settled."
Here, on what is believed to be one of the oldest privately owned wine
estaes in South Africa there is a prevailing air of timelessness and
old-world charm. In the gabled cellar, Muraties winemaker practices
his art in the traditional manner, allowing nature to practice its magic.
While Muratie is perhaps best-known for outstaning port, the rich red
Hutton soil and micro-climate provide ideal conditions for the production
of top-quality wines.
