Description
Vibrant and coastal in character, the 2025 Tokara Sauvignon Blanc showcases Stellenbosch’s maritime influence with a shimmering straw color and pale green hue. Aromas of lemon sorbet, ripe guava skin, and Cape gooseberry leap from the glass, leading to a crisp palate layered with concentrated citrus and tropical fruit. A subtle salinity—reminiscent of oyster shell—gives this wine its signature finish and refreshing elegance. Enjoy well-chilled with grilled prawns, fresh oysters, or simply on its own on a sun-soaked afternoon.

Crafted from select Sauvignon Blanc vineyards in Stellenbosch and Elgin, each block is hand-harvested at optimal ripeness to capture vibrant fruit and crisp acidity. After gentle pressing and overnight settling, only the finest juice is cold-fermented in stainless steel to preserve purity. The final blend is stabilized and bottled to express its bright, coastal character.

South African Tokara winery, on the R310 outside Stellenbosch, is nestled among vineyards and olive groves on the crest of the Helshoogte Pass with sweeping views across False Bay and all the way to Table Mountain. With elevations of between 350m and 550m, soil profiles are of weathered sandstone and decomposed granite - the combination lending structure, perfume and longevity to their wines.
