Crystallum are making some really classy wines and this is yet another. Stone fruit and ripe citrus with nutty oak and delicate spice on the nose. Fabulous palate that is both rich and fresh, long and textural yet light on its feet! Ripe citrus and stone fruit allied to nutty oak, with fabulous acidity running through, Creamy and rich on the finish, impeccable balance.
"The Agnes uses components from the Ceres Plateau, the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge and Shaw’s
Mountain and is always one of the most consistent wines in the Crystallum range. Fermented
in older oak with full malolactic, it’s a balanced, self-assured bottling with citrus, oatmeal
and vanilla spice flavours and a zesty, tapering finish. 2026-31" 93pts Tim Atkin MW 2026 South Africa Report
