This Toronto based consignor has been collecting over 40 years. He acquired all of his wine directly from the LCBO and most were OWCs. The bottles have been meticulously stored in perfect climate controlled conditions prior to coming to Iron Gate.
The wine in this lot has a score of 91 from Stephen Tanzer and the following tasting note -Bright red-ruby. Very complex, inviting, slightly roasted nose combines cassis, molasses, dark chocolate, espresso, herbs and mellow oak tones. Lush, sweet, dense and ripe, but with firm acidity and flinty minerality giving verve to the quintessential cabernet flavors of currant and fresh herbs. Finishes with dusty, sweet tannins. The best vintage of this bottling that come my way in some time.
