The excellent wine list at Toronto’s Granite Club inspired this gentleman to begin collecting wine years ago. The collection consists of Cru Classe Bordeaux, Burgundy and California classics, most purchased on visits to these regions. Some of the wine came from specialty wine stores in New York. His wine, which has always been stored in a temperature and humidity-controlled cellar, has made its way to Iron Gate as he and his wife are downsizing.
Producer tasting notes- This is the fastest maturing and least complex of all the Domaine's wines. It opens before the others, displaying a delightful clarity of expression- a seductive tenderness overlays a firm structure which allows it to evolve with elegance. Grands-Echézeaux's little brother it sometimes approaches its style in terms of muscularity and power.
