Wine Expert Note:

On the nose, the Tokara Director's Reserve Red presents a bouquet of ripe dark fruits, such as blackberries and plums, accompanied by hints of spice and cedar. These aromas are further enhanced by subtle notes of vanilla and chocolate, adding depth and richness to the wine. Upon tasting, the wine reveals a velvety texture and well-integrated tannins, providing a smooth and luxurious mouthfeel. The flavors of black fruits continue to dominate, with additional layers of blackcurrant and black cherry coming into play. There is a delightful interplay between fruitiness and earthiness, with nuances of tobacco and leather adding complexity to the overall profile. The Tokara Director's Reserve Red is a full-bodied wine with a long and lingering finish. It has the potential to age gracefully, allowing the flavors to further develop and evolve over time. This wine would pair beautifully with hearty dishes such as grilled meats, game, or aged cheeses.
