Fairview Broken Barrel 2021

Product information "Fairview Broken Barrel 2021"
Simply unmistakable - that is the Fairview Broken Barrel. This vintage focuses on the spicy grape varieties Shiraz (62%), Mourvèdre (24%) and Grenache Noir (14%), which were used for the red wine blend. The wine flows into the glass in a dark red hue and reveals the inviting scent of black pepper, cloves and herbs in the bouquet. Nuances of ripe plums successfully round off the first impression. On the palate, the spicy-fruity interplay of aromas continues: Notes of blackcurrants, cinnamon and a hint of fynbos characterise the taste of the Fairview Broken Barrel. The full-bodied but balanced red wine with the good tannin structure matured in oak for eighteen months and is a great companion to the barbecue. But also spicy dishes or a delicious cheese platter are an excellent choice with the Fairview Broken Barrel.

The Fairview Winery Combines Tradition and Innovation

Fairview was one of the first wineries in South Africa and was founded in Paarl at the foot of Paarl Mountain in 1693. The first Fairview wine was produced six years later. In 1937, the estate was purchased by the Back family and restored. Today it is run by the third generation, by Charles Back – who is always on the lookout for exciting terroir for unique wine creations. Charles Back attaches great importance to sustainable winegrowing, so that the grapes can mature optimally and produce innovative Fairview wines.

The Mascot of Fairview is the Goat

Besides good wine, Fairview has another passion. Land not suitable for viticulture is used as pasture for the goats of Fairview. In addition to wine, Fairview Goats Cheese has been a delicacy on the estate since 1980. But not only the wine and the delicious cheese attract tourists to the winery. The animals themselves are an attraction as well, especially the young animals get young and old alike excited every year. The connection to the animals is reflected in the logo of the winery. The Fairview Goat Tower, the home of the goats, is depicted on it.

Fairviews Great Variety of Wines

The majority of the 300 hectares of vineyards is cultivated with red grape varieties. The noble red products are the flagship of Fairview. Irrespective of this, the estate is particularly diverse in its wine production. In addition to the classic South African grape varieties such as Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinotage, the estate also produces exotic varieties such as Malbec and Carignan. Thus, the estate offers a great variety of wines and innovative creations, paired with a long tradition. Fairview's team of winemakers always succeeds in astonishing the wine lover.
