Tokara Director's Reserve White 2019

A wine that could hold up its head in a tasting of top white Bordeaux from Pessac-Léognan, this is a self-assured cuvée of Sauvignon Blanc and 30% Semillon, with 32% new oak fermentation in larger barrels. Toast and vanilla spice notes are complemented by a herbal, tangy palate and a salty, seaweed undertone. Drink date: 2023-2030. Score - 94.
