Crystallum Litigo Pinot Noir 2019
Crystallum Litigo Pinot Noir 2019 – The maiden vintage from seven-year-old vines on Crystallum’s own Shaw’s Mountain vineyard just outside the Hemel en Aarde valley. The Litigo, meaning ‘discussion’ in legal terms, is a wine made in partnership with lawyer Eben van Wyk. The nose is subtle but alluring with mulberry and pomegranate alongside intense floral notes and a light peaty smokiness in the background. A palate of bright red fruits, sweet spice and olive tapenade add body and complexity. With fine tannins and a medium acidity, this is a fresh and vibrant wine accessible early but suitable for ageing through 2025.
