Product Description:
The 2016 Director's Reserve White has a very generous, attractive bouquet of yellow plum, whipped cream and almond aromas, with the barrel fermentation adding a light guava note. The palate is very well-balanced with grapefruit, pineapple, light ginger, and quince notes, a good acidity and a pleasant, slightly nutty finish that perhaps just needs a little more persistence. Fine.

Vinifikation
The grapes originate from the best blocks on the highest-lying slopes of the Tokara Estate in Stellenbosch. The grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness, between 22.5 and 23.5 Brix. The grapes were destemmed, pressed, and the clean free-run juice was inoculated with yeast. For fermentation, the free-run juice was filled into 400-litre barrels. All barrels were made of French oak, of which around 29% were new. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine was left on the lees for 9 months and regularly stirred. In November, it was blended, stabilised, filtered, and bottled.
