Tokara Reserve Stellenbosch Chardonnay 2010
Spicy vanilla and greengage lifted by light hints of toasty oak. Tropical fruit and spice are complimented with lemons and lime. A perfect balance of minerality and buttery accents.

07‘s toasty oak facade for full-fruited, pure lemon/lime fruit reflects greater exposure to brls than stablemate (Ferm/11 mths, 40% new). Poised (14.5% alc in balance), taut, with bracingly dry mineral finish. Needs 3+ yrs to shine fully. (Platter 2009) |
