Tokara Pinotage 2006

This wine displays an inky garnet colour with bright ruby rim in the glass. The aromas abound with dark fruit, star anise and savoury meats, layered with ripe plums, fresh prunes and blueberries. The palate is full and rich with flavours of Christmas cake and ripe berry fruits. The mid-palate displays big powerful tannins, which finish silky smooth on the palate.

Only available at our Tasting Room, not for trade or export.

This wine will pair well with hearty Oxtail stew, Coq au Vin, Osso Bucco and Grilled steaks.
