A passionate and seasoned collector from Toronto, who has been buying fine wine since 1978. He purchased his first case of Mouton Rothschild and Chateau Latour at the vintage store in Ottawa and many bottles through the SAQ. He and his wife love traveling to wine regions in France and Italy and they acquired numerous bottles during their journeys. After downsizing to a smaller space, he decided to reduce his collection, hoping it will find a new owner who will appreciate it as much as he has. The collection was kept in his temperature-controlled cellar before going to auction.
The score for 1990 Chateau Latour a Pomerol Pomerol is 91 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Sourced directly from Moueix cellars. A deep garnet core with tawny rim. A really lovely Pomerol nose with stewed black fruits, liquorices, minerals, a touch of chalk dust. It has excellent definition, none of that baked quality that you occasionally find on Right Bank 1990s although there is a touch of brett. The palate is full-bodied, a little glossy with lots of glycerine, moderate acidity, perhaps quite linear. It does not really fan out like I was expecting, so further cellaring would be in order although having said that, the 1989 as a longer evolutionary arc.
