Fairview Estate is a third generation family owned farm, located on the slopes of PaarlMountain in the magnificent winelands of the Cape of Good Hope. With a winemaking heritage reaching back to 1693, Fairview is a respected and awarded producer and has been bottling wine under its own label since 1974. During this time the farm has developed a reputation as one of South Africa’s leading wine producers. Under the guidance of owner Charles Back, who joined his father at the farm in 1978, Fairview’s range of innovative and award winning wines has not only carved out a strong position in the market but has also helped to strengthen the reputation of South African wines in international markets including the United States.
La Capra is inspired by the fantastic tale of Attila Balébôs and an all‐encompassing passion for life and the celebration thereof. The wines invite you to enjoy the festival spirit of La Capra every day and are made is a style to suit. The La Capra label draws inspiration from the various influences that have shaped the direction of Fairview and an annual springtime “La Capra Festival” will start in 2010. This festival will be a celebration of good food, fine wine and uplifting music. It will be a coming together of creeds and cultures (and baby goats!) to mark the arrival of springtime in the Cape.
