The Fairview estate is situated approximately 50km from Cape Town, on the lower slopes of Mt. Paarl, and was planted with vines as early as 1699. The property was bought by Charles Back's grandfather in 1937 and was subsequently run by his father, Cyril, before Charles took charge. His era has seen Fairview emerge to become one of the country's most exciting properties, with all its production now certified as Fair Trade.

“Perfectly suited to the terroir, Shiraz was the first varietal that my father, Cyril, bottled under the Fairview label. Over the years, we have used Shiraz to best illustrate the potential of the Cape's ancient soils and it has become the cornerstone of our red wine portfolio.

This wine shows ripe fruit flavours and bold spice aromas, complemented by judicious oaking”.
