A small collection of Bordeaux and Champagne from one of the most significant wine and art collections in Canda. Sourced across the last century, these bottles were stored in a temperature and humidity-controlled home cellar and brought to Iron Gate to find them a new home.
The score for 1962 Chateau d'Yquem Sauternes Premier Cru Superieur is 100 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - One of the most fantastic mature wines I’ve ever encountered from this iconic estate in Sauternes, the 1962 d'Yquem displays a sensual, racy bouquet with aromas of saffron, quince, spices, candied orange, white truffles and perfectly ripe orchard fruits, followed by a medium to full-bodied, supple and sensual palate, bright acids and a fleshy core of fruit that assert themselves gently on the finish. This multidimensional Yquem, less unctuous and thicker than the mighty 1967, deserves the ultimate score and represents the essence of this great terroir.
