This Toronto based consignor began collecting wine 15 years ago. Most of his collection was purchased through the SAQ and the LCBO and was stored in his professionally installed Rosehill home cellar before making its way to Iron Gate.
The score for 1975 Chateau Lafite Rothschild Pauillac is 93 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Three late-released bottles of the 1975 Lafite Rothschild were drinking beautifully, soaring from the glass with scents of sweet red berries, camphor, cigar box and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, ample and enveloping, with a generous core of fruit, melting tannins and succulent acids, this is a soft, seamless wine despite the inherently firm style of the vintage, and it's at its peak today.
