Platter’s by Diners Club South African Wine Guide has just announced the five-star wines in its 2022 edition and at Creation we’re proud to have no less than four wines in this prestigious line-up. Our top performers are: Creation The Art of Chardonnay 2020, Creation Reserve Chardonnay 2020, Creation The Art of Pinot Noir 2020 and Creation Reserve Pinot Noir 2020.

We are honoured by these ratings coming from what must be South Africa’s most influential wine guide. They certainly bolster our estate’s proud track record for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, which are our flagship cultivars.

The Platter’s Wine Guide is now in its 42nd edition and this year 234 wines across 28 categories have been awarded the coveted 5-star rating. Wines qualifying for this maximum ranking are subjected to a rigorous process of sighted and blind assessment by a team of experts. Only wines judged to be “superlative, a South African classic” are allocated five stars, which is equal to 95 points, or better, on the 100-point rating scale.

We are especially pleased with the Creation Art of Chardonnay 2020 which, at the top of its category, scored 97/100. I like to think of this single-site specific, barrel selection as the ‘Queen of White Wines’ – a wine with steely tension, yet elegantly refined.
