Mulderbosch
To most discerning wine lovers, at home and abroad, the name Mulderbosch needs no introduction. Mulderbosch (situated in the prime Koelenhof area of Stellenbosch) is widely accepted to be one of the best white wine producers in the country and Mike Dobrovic one of the most talented wine makers in South Africa. The emphasis has always been, and will always remain, on quality at the expense of quantity. One of the extraordinary characteristics of these wines is their ability to age remarkably well. Small wonder that the limited quantities produced are in great demand whenever they become available.
