Product information "Tokara Cabernet Sauvignon 2022"
The Tokara Cabernet Sauvignon has a brilliant garnet-red colour and exudes seductive aromas of dried cranberries, red currants and fine cassis, as well as fragrant hints of fine tobacco spice and finely herbaceous notes. Delicious nuances of rich red berry fruit and fine oak spice caress the palate. Its tannin profile is reminiscent of dark chocolate and Christmas baking spice on the finish. A generous and full-bodied drop of remarkable class!

The grapes were destemmed and all remains were removed by hand at the sorting table and then pressed directly into stainless steel tanks and wooden foudres. The must was allowed to cool down and then subjected to a cold swelling phase before fermentation with natural yeasts began. Twice a day the cake was submerged and juice was pumped over it until the fermentation was completed. The wine was put into barrels for malolactic fermentation. The Tokara Cabernet Sauvignon matured for a total of 19 months in French barriques. 18% of the barrels were new wood, while the rest were older French oak barrels.
