Page 42 - WINE DINE AND TRAVEL FALL 2020 South Africa

Writing this, I can almost taste some of my
menu favorites - fragrant fennel topped beet root
carpaccio, savory cured ocean trout with water-
melon and - oh yes, the venison-like springbok
loin with its delicious jus rendered with estate-
grown herbs and fruit. Of course we saved room
for dessert - a refreshing fruit crumble and
pineapple gelato matched with Tokara’s honey-
gold Late Harvest Sauvignon Blanc.
Before piling back into an Uber for the drive
home - and a nap (!), We purchased some Tokara
wines to take on our cruise, including their very
quaffable rose, our warm-weather favorite. As
you might expect, none made it on board.
