Peter Max Pinot Noir Crystallum, 75cl

This small winery was established in 2007 by brothers Peter-Allan and Andrew Finlayson. Their father, Peter, was a pioneer in the production of cool climate Chardonnay and Pinot Noir at Bouchard Finlayson, so after university it seemed the natural thing for the boys to return home and start their own label. Crystallum is now one of the most highly regarded wineries in South Africa.

Fruit for the Peter Max Pinot Noir is now sourced from several vineyards, located in the coastal area of Hemel-en-Aarde as well as a new high altitude, inland site. The different sites experience altitude and cooling sea breezes, which slow down the grape ripening process, resulting in grapes with excellent concentration of flavour and balanced, fresh acidity.

This vintage of Peter Max Pinot Noir displays aromas of red cherry, cranberry, rose and lavender. The palate is dense and focused with fine, grippy tannins lending further structure and depth to the weight of fruit.

Please note, this product contains the allergen sulphites.
