Information about "Hogan The Galvanised Chardonnay 2024"
The The Galvanised Chardonnay charms with its bouquet of delicate floral notes, refreshing herbs, and ripe citrus, subtly enhanced by elegant yeast spice. On the palate, it presents clarity and directness, with juicy fruit, lively acidity, and a pleasantly bitter, structured finish. This Chardonnay skillfully reflects the cool, elevated origin of the Banhoek vineyard at 450 meters, offering balance, finesse, and a concentrated yet unobtrusive style.
Grapes hail from a 21-year-old Chardonnay vineyard in espalier training, located on the Summercourt Farm at an elevation of 400 meters. After careful handpicking and sorting, whole bunches were gently pressed. The must was cold settled overnight at 10°C before undergoing spontaneous fermentation in used French oak barrels (225l and 300l). The malolactic fermentation occurred naturally, intentionally avoiding intensive bâtonnage to preserve freshness and precision.
