Crystallum The Agnes Chardonnay pampers the senses with a seductive bouquet of fragrant peach, lychee, fine apple aromas and tangy lime peel. Tight and pure on the palate, the aromas already sniffed by the nose unfold here in the form of delicious taste nuances with butterscotch, flint and smoke, wonderfully rounded off by subtle wood tones.
This highly endowed Chardonnay is dedicated to clock-grandmother Agnes - a power woman who was known in the Overberg region as a charismatic and unyielding pioneer and was one of the first women in Cape Town to obtain a driving licence.

This Chardonnay was produced according to traditional methods. The grapes were destemmed and put in the press as a whole berry. The resulting juice was cooled down overnight and the next day transferred to large oak barrels and fermented spontaneously without the addition of SO2 or enzymes. The fermentation was carried out in barrels with subsequent maturation of 9 months before bottling.
