in the vineyard : Fairview cellar - with it's spectacular view of Table Mountain - lies on the south west slopes of Paarl at the Cape of Good Hope. Established more than 300 years ago, Fairview has been in my family for three generations. Our committed team carefully guide the wine from the vine to the bottle, capturing yet another perfect Cape summer. Crisp and fresh, this dry RosÃ© is well structured, and packed with ripe fruit.

The grapes were harvested from vineyards in the Paarl, Piekenerskloof, Perdeberg, Stellenbosch and Malmesbury regions. The grapes are mostly sourced from dry farmed old bush vines. These are mostly low yielding vineyards resulting in wine with considerable concentration. The remaining fruit is from trellised vineyards, with supplementary irrigation.

about the harvest: The different varietals were harvested ripe and crushed.
Harvest Date: February and March 2006
