Product information "Fairview Sweet Red 2022"
The dark, ruby red colour is characteristic for the Fairview Sweet Red, because it is made out of Petite Sirah, Tempranillo and Souzão grape varieties, which form a great interplay of flavours. When you bring the glass to your nose, a tempting scent emerges. The focus here is on sun-ripened plums and a fascinating mixture of spices, which give the red wine blend depth and complexity. Notes of sultanas with a sweet hint of candied berry nuances indulge the palate and provide a balanced taste. You definitely should not miss this taste experience and try the refined with brandy and matured in French oak dessert wine, alone. However, the red wine also invites you to make a number of delicious combinations. This wine can be combined perfectly with sour cherry cake or chocolate truffles and if you like a spicy note with the sweet taste, you should not miss a piece of cheese with it.

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.
