Director’s Reserve

Founded in the 1990s, Tokara is a family-run estate with quality at its core. Estate is situated on the Simonsberg side of the Banghoek Valley, at elevations of between 350m and 550m and with breath-taking views across to Table Bay. The estate features award winning architecture with a modern approach to wine making and a terroir ideal for producing world class wines. The soil profiles are of weathered sandstone and decomposed granite, the combination lending structure, perfume and longevity to their wines.

The wine has stunning depth of color. Displaying intense garnet centre and a ruby rim. The nose is shy at first then opens up to a blend of red and black fruits with hints of dried herbs, Eucalyptus, cedar wood and graphite. The wine enters the palate with amazing clarity. The flavors are those of dark cherries, raspberries and black currant. There is a hint of herbal spice on the mid-palate which leads to fine, firm tannins on the finish.
