CRYSTALLUM Peter Max Pinot Noir 2025 (750mL)

The CRYSTALLUM Peter Max Pinot Noir 2025 is the latest vintage of a highly-regarded, entry-level Pinot Noir from the acclaimed Crystallum winery in South Africa . While the 2025 vintage is available for purchase, detailed tasting notes for this specific year are not yet widely published.

• Crystallum, a boutique winery in the Hemel-en-Aarde region founded by brothers Andrew and Peter-Allan Finlayson, is known for its premium cool-climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay .

• This is Crystallum's flagship "entry-point" Pinot Noir, designed to be an excellent introduction to their range. It's a blend of grapes from different vineyards, primarily in the Overberg and Hemel-en-Aarde regions .

• For the 2025 vintage, the winemaking involved pressing 30% whole grape clusters, natural fermentation, and aging in old oak barrels . Previous vintages used around 10% whole clusters and aged for 11 months in used oak .

• Food Pairing: It pairs well with meaty and oily fish, duck breast, mushroom risotto, or grilled salmon .
