Tokara Director’s Reserve Red 2006, Stellenbosch, South Africa




This Bordeaux blend from South Africa (Cabernet Sauvignon 82%, Petit Verdot 10%and Merlot 8%) has incredible aromatics. Just inhalingthis wine I knew this would be something special. On the nose I get blackberry, black currant, cassis, cedar and Christmas cake spices. The aromas follow through beautifully onto the palate, full body, balance acidity and well integrated tannins. The finish is long with freshly roasted coffee, earthy and classic cedar notes. Stylish and very classy wine here.
This wine was purchased on October 16, 2010 LCBO New Release at $ 26.95.
