Fairview Caldera 2022

Caldera is a blend of three Mediterranean grape varieties from exceptional vineyards sites. The Grenache Noir is from an old vine vineyard in the Piekenierskloof valley and our best Paarl Mountain site (Stok-by Paaltjie single vineyard). The Shiraz grapes were sourced from a cool climate Darling site as well as our highest mountain site on the Fairview property. The Mourvèdre is from the lower slopes of Paarl Mountain on the Fairview Farm, and the Cinsault from a bush vine block planted in 1994 just below the Taal Monument.
