Backsberg Wine Estate

Estate in Stellenbosch

 

he Back family business was founded in 1902 by Charles Louis Back – who came to South Africa as a penniless, illiterate, Jewish refugee from Lithuania. From there it was transferred into the hands of Sydney, followed by Michael and his son Simon.

Over the years the business has gone through many iterations since its purchase by CL Back in 1916.

In its 106 years, it has been a mixed farming operation – from fruit to grapes and even livestock – but today the focus is on the wine business. Celebrating four generations of family ownership, and several years of quality winemaking, Backsberg Family Wines continues to thrive by honouring the past whilst simultaneously forging ahead with forward-thinking holistic practices.
