Product Notes

Crystallum Mabalel Elandskloof Pinot Noir is an opulent yet refined South African wine, produced in limited quantities. Its vibrant ruby red hue speaks of its intense flavours, hinting at cherries and red fruits, layered with a mellow earthiness. This elegant and well-structured Pinot Noir offers a pleasing palate with balanced acidity and silky tannins, adding to its long, enduring finish. Hints of smoky oak blend harmoniously with underlying floral notes, making each sip a pleasure. It's an exquisite choice to accompany roast duck or lamb, resonating with the rich flavours of the meats. Truly a delight to both novices and connoisseurs.

Tasting Notes

The 2023 vintage is a bold expression of this high elevation site. It has layered aromas of red plums, candied raspberry, as well as savoury notes of liquorice and sage, typical of this vineyard. Sappy tannins and zippy acidity elongate the finish.
