A Toronto-based consignor who has had a keen interest in wine for several decades. His collection, consisting of stellar vintages of Burgundian and Italian wine was procured through local agents, the LCBO and SAQ upon release, with a few coming from The Rare Wine Company in California. Storage consisted of a wine unit in a climate-controlled room before arriving at Iron Gate for auction.
The score for 1996 Domaine Leroy Vosne Romanee Les Beaux Monts Premier Cru is 96 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - This dark-colored wine is a cut above. Profound aromas of intensely sweet cherries, raspberries, stones, and earth give way to a full-bodied, extremely feminine, and massively ripe and vibrant core of roses, cherries, and candied blueberries. This silky-textured, hedonistic (yet wonderfully structured), and focused wine ends on an incredibly long and detailed finish.
