Crystallum 'Peter Max', Pinot Noir, Western Cape 2022
Peter and Max are the first names of the winegrowers who worked in the vineyards used to produce the first vintage of this vintage. Things have changed since then but the name has remained to pay homage to them. The Pinot Noir grapes come from 4 distinct vineyards and the philosophy is to make a balanced and harmonious blend. The fruits were picked by hand and the wine was fermented naturally . Then it remained for 10 months in French oak barrels, 15% of which were new. The wine was then bottled after light filtration. On the palate, we are talking about Pinot Noir here with a crystalline and pure structure, supported by texture and an acidity that makes the mouth water. Fine and intense, we immediately sense red fruits such as wild strawberries , raspberries , redcurrants, cherries and some floral, spicy and smoky notes. A delicious wine to drink now and over the next 10 years.
