Fairview is a third-generation, family-owned estate, acquired by Lithuanian immigrant Charles Back in 1937. Under the stewardship of his grandson and current owner, Charles Back, Fairview has evolved from a modest family farm into an internationally famous destination for wine, cheese, and agri-tourism. Today, it remains an authentic working farm, home to a collection of complementary micro-businesses united by a shared commitment to artisanal craftsmanship and sustainability. From fine wines and award-winning cheeses to free-range meats, baked goods, and innovative plant-based products, Fairview reflects Charles Back’s legendary entrepreneurial spirit—one that has established him as one of South Africa’s most awarded and pioneering winemakers.
Fairview charms from the moment you enter its confines. Upon arrival, you are welcomed by the estate’s famous walled, enchanting Goat Tower, an iconic landmark in the Cape Winelands. Adored by children and adults alike, it has been home to the estate’s beloved furry mascots since 1981.
