Cape Granite White 2020
R55.00
This wine has aromas of stonefruit, citrus and subtle touch of floral and oak notes. The palate has tropical fruit flavours, fresh acidity with a creamy texture derived from a small portion of the wine that was matured in oak. A lovely pairing with cream-based seafood and pasta dishes.

Description
Established in 1693, the Fairview Estate is nestled on the south western slopes of Paarl Mountain, just 40 minutes from Cape Town. Africa’s largest Granite outcrop, Paarl Rock gives a panoramic view of Fairview Estate and the surrounding Cape vineyards. This pearlescent rock formed over 500 million years ago providing the soils on the upper slopes of our farm. This blend from Granite offers a true sense of Fairview Estate.
