The creative brainchild of Charles Back, a winemaker with a strong entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for innovation, Goats do Roam blends humour and philosophy, with delicious wine to captivate the taste buds.

The winery is named after a band of goats which belonged to Back's farm, Fairview. After their escape, they roamed the vineyards, munching on whichever grapes they fancied.

Maintaining an environmentally friendly production process and sustaining a symbiotic relationship with nature is central to the philosophy of Goats do Roam, having implemented sustainable farming methods since it's inception. Charles Back’s avant-garde approach to wine making has not only brought him recognition but also contributed significantly to the sustainability of the surrounding community and environment.

Don't be fooled by the playful name, Goats do Roam winery is serious about its mission to create unique, premium wines that captivate the pallet and allow you to relish in the joy of relaxed, convivial indulgence, 'goat-style'.
