Winemaker Notes
Displaying an appealing red claret color with an intense centre and a ruby rim. The nose showcases complex aromas including ripe red and black berry fruit with hints of creamy cassis, cedar wood and toasted oak. The wine enters the palate with incredible purity and focus. Flavours are those of dark cherry, blackberries and ripe plum skin. Sumptuous and full there is a pleasant hint of spice on the mid-palate which leads to fine, firm tannins on the finish.
This wine is a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Petit Verdot, 9% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc. The grapes originated from Tokara's premium vineyards on the slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain outside of Stellenbosch.
