Murray Estate Wines
The name Murray Estate was chosen, not for the obvious, but because Murray is my mother’s family name. My wife and I planted the vineyard in 1997 and picked our first vintage in March 2000. Few people get the opportunity to see their dream come true. For us, crushing our first vintage was that moment.

Our cellar door is open to the public on most weekends and special occasions. We are also available during the week by appointment for private tastings, or for the purchase of wine. Murray Estate is located about 7 km from Mulwala on Tocumwal Road overlooking the Murray River.
