Muratie's Summer Wine Down 2021

You won’t want to miss Muratie’s exciting new event coming up on the 27th of March - it’s their Summer Wine Down, an alfresco ‘celebration of all things wine’.

So, join the Melck family, under the ancient oaks that guard this historic wine estate, for an intimate family event featuring good food, fine wine, great company, live music and grape ‘stomping.’

After a welcome carafe of wine on arrival, fun and laughter trampling grapes and wine tasting, enjoy a long lazy Farm Kitchen lunch sipping on Muratie’s much-loved wines and soaking up a chilled live performance by The Bullets playing a mixed bag of fabulous sounds.

Due to current regulations, there will be limited seats available to allow for social distancing. The entrance fee is R150 per person. Bookings are essential. All Covid protocol will be strictly adhered to. Please remember to wear a mask. For bookings, please email festival@muratie.co.za or call 021 865 2330

VISIT MURATIE WINE ESTATE FOR AN UNPARALLELED CAPE WINELANDS EXPERIENCE.

There are enchanting places where one can escape life’s hustle and bustle, and Muratie is one of those magical treasures. Hidden away in the exquisite Knorhoek valley, with a perfect view of Table Mountain, Muratie is as old as history itself, with a unique, almost tangible old-world ambience. The passion for preserving the estate’s rich, centuries-old heritage is captured in every nook and cranny of this family farm. Beautiful old Cape Dutch buildings, crumbling statues, antique wine-making equipment, and the quaint tasting room with its cobwebs, stained glass windows and art, are all set in a secret garden, a lush green haven of peace and tranquillity.

Contemporary Culture at the MOK Gallery: Muratie is also home to the contemporary MOK Gallery. ‘MOK’, an abbreviation for modern kontemporêr, is the Afrikaans translation for modern contemporary. Art is an important aspect of the Muratie history with the late owner and artist, George Paul Canitz, serving much of his tenure on the estate. The gallery is located in Ansela van de Caab’s house, dating from 1685.
