A couple from Ontario who consider themselves more consumers than collectors. She is a chef, and they began to purchase wine in the early 90s so she could pair it with meals. They have recently discovered that they have more wine than they can consume and decided to bring it to auction. Wine was purchased through the LCBO and stored in their custom-built home cellar.
The score for 1995 Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape is 95 points from Wine Spectator and the tasting note - Very youthful, with a ripe core of red currant and raspberry fruit and licorice flavor surrounded by creamy tannins. Plenty of smoke, mineral and tobacco notes chiming in, but this still has a ways to go, with plenty of grip still on the finish.
