Nestled in the Yarra Valley, Tokar Estate is a family-owned winery known for producing elegant, cool-climate wines with a strong sense of place. Founded by Leon and Rita Tokar, the estate has grown into a respected name in the region, blending tradition with a forward-thinking approach to winemaking. Today, their son Daniel Tokar leads the next generation with a hands-on role in both vineyard management and winemaking. His focus is on crafting wines that reflect the quality of the fruit and the character of the site. Sustainability and minimal intervention are key to the estate’s philosophy, allowing the natural expression of varietals like Pinot Noir, Shiraz and Chardonnay to come through in every vintage. Tokar Estate is also home to a Mediterranean-inspired restaurant, where seasonal dishes are thoughtfully paired with estate-grown wines. This hospitality offering completes the experience, giving visitors the opportunity to enjoy a relaxed meal with views across the vineyards. With a commitment to family values, quality and authenticity, Tokar Estate continues to produce wines that speak of the Yarra Valley and the people who care for it.
