Hogan Chenin Blanc 2023

R428.00

Region: Swartland

Tasting note:

‘Citrus, lemon blossom, spicy baked apple & vanilla create a riot of flavour & aroma in 2023. Refined, rounded & wonderfully vibrant, mineral finish. Pure delight from Swartland grapes, like 2022 (4.5 stars, 93 pts); wholebunch fermented/9 months older barrels.’ – Platter’s 2025 5*

‘Grapes from Swartland. Winemaking as above. Gorgeous aromatics – a floral top note precedes pear, peach, lime and lemon with just a hint of flinty reduction in the background. The palate shows great refinement – pure fruit, lip-smacking acidity and a saline finish. A wine of poise and elegance. Alc: 12.65%.’ – CE 95pts

‘Showing the layers, subtlety and detail that are the hallmarks of Jocelyn Hogan’s wines, this stylish Chenin Blanc from a single parcel in the Swartland has aromas of thatch and lanolin, a hint of enticing fynbos bitterness, nicely understated oak, citrus and yellow apple flavours and a mouth-watering, chiselled finish. 2024-30’ – Tim Atkin MW

Hogan wines was started in 2014 and is a small, family-run business with Jocelyn Hogan Wilson as winemaker. Having a keen interest in botany, soil, wine, and the outdoors, Jocelyn enrolled at the University of Stellenbosch in 2001 to study a BSc degree in Viticulture & Oenology. After seven years of working for various wineries in the Cape and overseas, she decided to team up with her family (the Hogans and the Wilsons) to start Hogan Wines. Jocelyn is passionate about South African old vines and aims to produce elegant, site-specific wines through minimal intervention and gentle handling. They make their wines in the beautiful Banhoek Valley and source grapes from various regions of the Western Cape, selecting vineyards suited in terms of climate and soil to the varietals they make. Older vines are chosen, which tell the story of the vintage through their well-established root systems, gnarled trunks and lower yields. Through close relationships with the farmers, they continually work to gain an understanding of the nuances of each vineyard, an understanding that they believe is pivotal to making good wine.
