Tasting Notes:
Akin to the 2020, this vintage shows both red and black fruits on the nose; wild strawberry and rhubarb work alongside blackberries and tomato leaf while black olives, salted liquorice and a signature charcuterie-like smokiness add gravitas. The palate is fresh, vibrant and precise, with red plum and sour cherry supported by a racy acidity and fine, pine-resin tannins. A full and finessed expression of its multiple vineyards – and a wine with the structure to age beyond 2030.
Other Notes: Another brilliant Pinot Noir from South Africa’s Crystallum winery, the 2019 vintage was produced with grapes sourced from four different vineyards. The grapes are naturally fermented, with half of the fruit de-stemmed, and the other half left as whole clusters, resulting in some nice structured tannins. A winner when paired with roasted meats.
