Mulderbosch founder Larry Jacobs bought the farm in 1989 the community referred to the property as “vuilplasie” Afrikaans for “dirty little farm”. Shortly after he partnered with Mike Dobrovic known as the South African Mr Sauvignon Blanc and together they cleaned up the property and planted the first vineyards. A (small) cellar was later built and the first set of wines were released: Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. The dream was to produce wine but certainly not just any wine; they had to consistently reflect innovation creativity and excellence.
