Tokara
Tokara winery is situated on the crest of the Helshoogte Pass, about 5km from the historic winemaking town of Stellenbosch. Apart from award winning architecture, the estate offers magnificent vistas of the Simonsberg Mountains, False Bay, Table Mountain and the lush Idas Valley. The wine production and marketing facility was designed to reflect the character of the wines themselves - innovative and distinctive. Spaces interact efficiently, with practicality being a core element.
