About this Item
On the crest of the Helshoogte Pass is the picturesque wine farm of Tokara owned by ex-banker GT Ferreira. Tokara’s first vines were planted in 1998 with a state-of-the-art winery erected shortly thereafter. Tokara has been consistently recognised as one of South Africa's top wineries.

Critics Ratings
'One of Stellenbosch’s great bargains, at least when you compare it with the international competition, this remarkable wine comes from selected, virus-free blocks on the farm. Sage and eucalyptus aromas lead you into a palate that’s intense, layered and concentrated with sculpted tannins.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2018, 96/100
'Power in the full ripeness, but it’s in their DNA to combine it with sleekness, a streamlined body. Lots of cellar care, including wild ferment, 22 months oaking (63% new) but 2015 projects pure pleasure: glossy fruit, tailored tannins. Long future.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2017, 4.5* (94/100)
