Named after five stone pine trees that stand sentinel over the farm.  This elegant Chardonnay is fermented and matured in casks for 15 months and is redolent of flint, peach, citrus and roasted nuts.

This wine can be enjoyed in its youth, however the benefits of bottle age and greated complexity will be revealed by patient maturation under ideal cellar conditions.

The legend goes that some errant members of Fairview's long established goatherd once escaped from their paddock into the Fairview vineyards after Charles Back's young son Jason accidentally left the gate open.  The little group happliy roamed among the vineyards, showing rare discernment by selecting some of the ripest berries from the vines.  Those berries have been used to make this white blend, a light bright green, medium bodied wine with aromas of apricots and pear and a zesty acidity.

Inspired by the teamwork and energy of African painted Wolves, our community of talented individuals combine resources to form the Painted Wolf Wines Pack.  This wine had been produced from grapes harvested off bush vines planted in 1986.  This wine was barrel fermented utilising the grapes natural yeasts in 500 litre 2nd and 3rd fill French and Hungarian oak barrels.  The result is a harmonious hand-made wine, with a soft white peach, mascarpone and wet stone aromas with a creamy mid-palate and a long balanced finish.  Our friend, Jenny Metelerkamp, produced a fine Painted Wolf ink drawing for the label.
