Crafted by Jocelyn Hogan Wilson, the Hogan Chenin Blanc 2024 is a testament to meticulous winemaking and the expressive potential of Swartland's old bush vines. Sourced from east-facing vineyards planted on decomposed granite soils in Joubertskloof, this wine reflects a commitment to purity and elegance.
Tasting Notes: Appearance: Pale straw with a luminous clarity. Nose: Vibrant aromas of pear, peach, lime, and lemon, complemented by a subtle flinty reduction. Palate: A refined expression of pure fruit flavors, underpinned by lip-smacking acidity and a saline finish, showcasing poise and elegance. Serving Suggestions: Best enjoyed chilled at 1012C (5054F).
This Chenin Blanc pairs beautifully with seafood dishes, creamy pastas, or can be savored on its own to appreciate its nuanced complexity. Accolades: Christian Eedes, Winemag: 95/100 Technical Details: Varietal: 100% Chenin Blanc Origin: Swartland, South Africa Alcohol: 13% pH: 3.37 Total Acidity: 5.3 g/L Residual Sugar: 1.6 g/L Vinification: Handpicked in February over two pickings, the grapes underwent gentle whole-bunch pressing without sulfur or other additions.
