Creation Glenn's Chardonnay, Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge 2024
White Wine from South Africa - Cape South Coast
Glenn is Carolyn and Jean-Claude (JC) Martin’s son – and Glenn’s Chardonnay comes from the same vineyard as Creation’s The Art of Chardonnay in the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge, debuting with the 2020 vintage which was his first year (properly) in the cellar with JC. Representing a different interpretation of the same block, it is entirely wild-fermented and made in even smaller quantities than The Art. Wonderfully tangy and energetic, with green-apple skin and a salted lemon core, this is both a more savoury and nervier expression of chardonnay than its sibling, with just-ripe white peach fruit and white-miso undertones on the long, flinty finish. It wears its oak subtly and is already complex and exciting.
