Fairview Stok by Paaltjie Grenache 2015 reflects the rugged charm of the Paarl vineyards nestled high on Paarl Mountain. The vines grow among Cape fynbos, each trained on its own post in the traditional vine-by-post style. Deep granite and shale soils shape the grapes with minerality and character, while the cool slopes bring freshness and balance. This vineyard, part of the Fairview wine farm, produces fruit that perfectly expresses the wild energy of the Cape Winelands.
The 2015 vintage began with ideal weather that allowed slow, even ripening. Hand-harvested grapes from low-yielding vines were gently fermented in open-top foudres, allowing vibrant fruit flavours to shine. After fermentation, the wine rested for fifteen months in seasoned French oak, building texture without overshadowing its purity. Every step focused on maintaining the delicate balance between freshness, fruit, and subtle spice.
