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 1990 Chateau Cos d'Estournel St Estephe is 94 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Not as concentrated as the 1982, or as most of the vintages made since 2001, the 1990 Cos has reached full maturity. It exhibits sweet berry fruit intermixed with spice box, herbs, and spring flowers. Expansive, round, and sensual, with wonderful purity as well as lushness, this irresistible wine can be enjoyed over the next 6-10 years.
