A wine specially blended for Waitrose by the highly skilled Charles Back, a legend in the South African wine world. From bush vines in the Paarl area, the grapes were fermented as whole berries and then matured in old French and American barrels.
This product contains sulphites.
Fairview has a reputation for consistent quality across a range of innovative styles, using both classic and unusual varieties.In 2014, the owner, Charles Back received a 'Lifetime Achievement Award' from the International Wine Challenge. Pinotage is a classic South African variety and originates from a 1925 cross between Pinot Noir and Cinsault (known as Hermitage in South Africa).
The 2016 harvest brought Fairview healthy, concentrated grapes to produce a top-quality wine.
Having spent ten months in 15% new French and American oak barrels, it has bright ruby red colour with cranberries, violets and plum aromas with a hint of vanilla on the palate. The elegant flavours of fresh red fruit and clove spice has a firm tannin finish.
