Michael Back’s grandfather arrived in Cape Town in the early years of the last century, a penniless political and religious refugee from Lithuania. Working first as a dockhand, then as a bicycle delivery boy, he eventually bought a butcher shop at the Paarl train station, which he subsequently traded in for the farm that is now heart of Backsberg Wine Cellars. Michael continues in charge today, joined since 2008 by his son Simon. This “Unorthodox” Sauvignon Blanc, certified Mevushal and Kosher for Passover, is meant as a celebration of the Back family’s Lithuanian/Jewish heritage. With its classic grassy and tropical fruit flavors, it features a well-rounded fruity palate backed with crisp acidity.
