This Quebec consignor was introduced to the world of wine by one of the province’s most important private collectors, Champlain Charest. M Champlain shared his passion and taught him to invest in value wines. He began his own collection in 2010, and purchased all of the bottles through the SAQ, SAQ Grand Connaisseur and Champlain Charest wine cellar. Prior to arriving at Iron Gate, the wines were stored in a wine cellar with the temperature regulated at 14C-15C and humidity controlled to 70%.
The tasting note for 1992 Chateau Rayas Reserve Chateauneuf du Pape is from Robert Parker - A fruity, soft, round style of Rayas, the 1992 exhibits more depth than the 1993. This medium ruby-colored wine offers dusty, earthy, cherry fruit intermingled with scents of pepper and herbs. This medium-bodied, fleshy wine has barely enough fruit, glycerin, and body to cover its fiery alcohol.
