More details
Fairview Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 comes from trellised vineyards in the Stellenbosch and Darling regions. Careful canopy management, including leaf removal, tipping and shoot positioning, helps sunlight reach the grapes and ensures even ripening.
The team harvested the grapes in March 2022 at 24.5° Balling. Half of the fruit fermented in wooden foudres after hand sorting, while the other half fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine remained on the skins for extended maceration before moving to barrels for malolactic fermentation and maturation.
The wine matured in French oak barrels, including 20% new oak. After 18 months of ageing, the winemaking team blended the components to create a balanced Cabernet Sauvignon with depth and structure.
