Tokara Stellenbosch Chardonnay 2007

Clear, bright rich light yellow and green colour. Spicy vanilla and greengage are lifted with light accents of toasty oak that is well integrated. Tropical fruit and spice are complimented with lemons and lime on the nose. A perfect balance of minerality and buttery accents. The entry offers broad and generous flavours held in check by a taught, textured and smokey finish. Hints of peach skin and intelligent use of restrained oak add to the dimensions of this classy wine.
