A Toronto based consignor who inherited her father’s wine. Her father’s love of wine began when he travelled through Europe. He truly loved the craft of winemaking. He became a sommelier and then, later in life, was the chair of the Wine Sommeliers Guild of Canada. He always enjoyed having people over to share bottles from his collection. His wine was purchased through the LCBO, from auction and in Europe. He stored his wine in a perfectly temperature-controlled cellar and then it moved to the Fine Wine Reserve before coming to Iron Gate.
The score for 1987 Calera Wine Company Selleck Vineyard Pinot Noir San Benito is 92 from Wine Spectator and the tasting note - Hard and tight now, but with a solid core of rich, concentrated, deeply perfumed black cherry, currant, plum and spice flavors. The finish picks up plenty of firm, chewy tannins and a good blast of oak. Planted in 1975 and situated with a southeastern exposure at 2,200 feet in elevation but still in the direct path of cooling winds from the Pacific, the 4.8-acre Selleck vineyard is composed of rocky soils that feature a mix of decomposed granite and limestone outcroppings. It enjoys a bit more sun exposure than the other sites, yielding wines of deep flavor, intensity, and structural refinement.
