Crystallum Peter Max Pinot Noir is a standout wine that captures the essence of South Africa's burgeoning wine scene, particularly from the Hemel-en-Aarde region in the Western Cape. Crafted by Crystallum, a small, family-run winery known for its focus on quality and terroir, this Pinot Noir benefits from a unique combination of maritime climate and clay-shale soils, producing grapes of remarkable complexity and depth. Utilizing a Burgundian approach to winemaking, including whole-bunch fermentation and aging in French oak barrels, the wine achieves a delicate balance between fruit and structure.
