Ultra elegant TOKARA MCC Blanc de Blanc<br />

Ultra elegant Tokara MCC Blanc de Blanc<br />

The maiden vintage TOKARA Méthode Cap Classique Blanc de Blanc 2011 is a superb 100%<br />

Chardonnay offering. Crafted from cool climate Chardonnay grown on TOKARA’s Elgin<br />

property, the MCC owes its elegance, texture and finesse to the more than four years it<br />

matured on the lees, the spent yeast cells after secondary bottle fermentation.<br />

This vibrant Blanc de Blanc has a fine, consistent mousse with aromas of freshly baked<br />

brioche, fresh apples and a hint of lemon blossom typical of Chardonnay. The fine bubbles<br />

explode in your mouth upon entry. The palate is mouth filling with flavours of toasted<br />

almonds, freshly buttered toast, lemon and lime preserve with a long finish.<br />

This ultra-elegant MCC is set apart by its unusual Butterfly bottle, a specially designed<br />

shape that lends gravitas and sophistication.<br />

The depth of flavour is extraordinary and well worth the cellar door price of R650.<br />
