A collector since university, more than 30 years ago, this consignor was on his school’s wine tasting team in England and was fortunate to have access to the university’s cellars to taste and learn about fine wines. He developed an appreciation for age worthy wines and began to purchase and carefully store them. Later in life he became friends with winemakers in old and new world regions and was able to purchase highly allocated wines through them. He also buys wine from agents and the LCBO and occasionally from auction and all bottles go directly to storage at Iron Gate.
Producer notes - Issued from a line of winemaker descents from 1840, the family’s ZIMMER managed the trade house “Preiss-Zimmer”. Since 1999, the house decided to return to a bottling at the domain of wines from its own vineyards (9 hectares around Riquewihr). The works of reorganization and commercial launch make good progress. Nowadays, Régine and her daughters, Laure and Carole, decide then to continue to produce wines of the domain in the respect for a quality work to insure the authentic expression of soils.
