Why We Love This Wine
Fairview Wines is a working farm housing a collection of micro-businesses (including La Capra) all sharing a common goal - creating artisanal & sustainable produce with a focus on fine wine & cheese. Caring custodians of the land since 1693, everything they do is driven by their philosophy of being honest, allowing ingenuity to flow, & honoring the heritage of the land by providing better conditions for farm workers and allowing them a chance to farm their own land. Aromas of tropical fruits, gooseberry, & melon dominate the nose followed by fresh flavors of ripe pineapple and citrus on the palate. It is soft & smooth with a balanced acidity.
