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 the 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.

The 1999, made from low yields, is a black/purple-colored, structured, long-lived Coudoulet with medium to full body, refreshing acidity, a roasted meat characteristic intermixed with black fruits, licorice, and spice, and a layered, rich finish
