Description
The Tokara Director’s Reserve White represents the pinnacle of white wine production at Tokara, one of Stellenbosch’s finest estates. This delicious white is a blend of 68% Sauvignon Blanc and 32% Semillon picked from pristine south/southwest facing granite slopes. The wine is pressed, with only the free run juice from the best blocks making the final wine. It is barrel fermented and aged in french oak for 9 months with regular lees stirring before blending and bottling in the November following harvest.
The Reserve White shows pristine fruit character of passion fruit, citrus and blackcurrant leaf mingling seamlessly with notes of toasty oak. Precise and fresh, yet rich and textured, this wonderful wine shows well in it’s youth but will reward ageing for at least 5 years from the vintage.

This is by no means bone dry though, and with 23grams of residual sugar this a fruitier style that is a great alternative to Prosecco for those looking for something a little different.
