Tokara Limited Release Pinotage, 2019

A Limited Release Stellenbosch Pinotage

This wine displays a deep garnet colour with a vibrant ruby red rim. Aromas of sweet red berry coulis with hints of appealing Chinese five spice emanate from the glass at first. These are then intertwined with hints of fresh vanilla and dark cocoa. There are flavours of intense ripe red berries, strawberries and cream with dry savoury notes on the palate leading to a textured finish. A truly moreish wine.

STORY BEHIND THIS WINE

Situated 50km to the east of Table Mountain, the Tokara “home farm” is rested on the Simonsberg side of the Banghoek Valley, at elevations of between 350m and 550m. Soil profiles are of weathered sandstone and decomposed granite, the combination lending structure, perfume and longevity to the wines.
