Established in 1693, the estate boasts a rich history and has grown into one of South Africa's most famous wineries and cheese producers. The estate is owned by the Back family, who have been committed to sustainable farming practices and innovation, ensuring that Fairview remains at the forefront of the South African wine and cheese industry.
