Hogan The Galvanised Chardonnay 2023 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Banghoek
R290
‘Graceful 2023 eschews Kaaimansgat for 100% Banghoek grapes, maintains stellar standard & understated elegance as it unspools intricate layers of citrus, melon & apple, followed by roasted nuts & warm pastry to a stony mineral conclusion. Superb now, with handsome rewards for the patient. 10 months older oak.’ – Platter's Guide, 5* (95/100)
‘Grapes entirely from Banghoek (no Elandskloof as was the case in the previous vintage). Matured for 10 months in older oak. Lemon and orange plus hints of nut, vanilla and spice on the nose. Good depth of fruit and intensity of fruit, lively acidity and a savoury finish. Generous and expressive rather than opulent. Alc: 12.8%.’ – Christian Eedes., Winemag.co.za, 94/100
'Jocelyn Hogan uses grapes from two distinct parcels on Stellenbosch Mountain, located at 350 and 400 metres, to produce her subtle, layered, lightly wooded Chardonnay. Sappy, savoury and refreshing, it has a nice medley of pear, apple and fynbos, a dusting of wood spices and a pithy, stony finish. 2024-29' – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2024, 93/100

| Producer information | Hogan Wines is a small, family-run business with Jocelyn Hogan Wilson as Winemaker. 2014 was the first vintage for Hogan wines. Their vines are grown in the Swartland and their wine produced in the Banhoek Valley. Jocelyn says of their wines, ‘our wines are never going to be consistent. We don’t want to make wine to a recipe; we want to make natural, site-specific, vintage driven wines.’. |
