South Africa, Walker Bay
R380
Tasting notes on the 2019 vintage:
'As Creation's vines get older, so the quality of the Pinot Noirs they produce continues to increase. This Reserve bottling is made from a two-hectare block entirely planted with the 115 clone and is serious, textured and layered, with black cherry and vanilla spice and the concentration and acidity to age. Drink 2023-27.' – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2020, 94/100
'A vineyard selection, styled for decade’s ageing. Intricate array of red & black fruit, savoury & clove spice highlights in 2019. Oak dialled up to 35% new, 12 months.' – Platter's Guide, 4.5* (93/100)
'Elegantly adorned in shades of garnet with deeper flashes of cerise as you swirl. Exquisitely expressive on the nose, the evocative perfume of Indonesian mace blending with enchanting whiffs of fresh raspberry and black cherry. On the palate this Prince of Reds spins poetry: velvety smooth and beautifully poised with great purity of fruit in harmony with crisp acidity and fine tannins.' – JC Martin, Winemaker
