Over 30 years ago, the LCBO played a key role in sparking his interest in wine when they opened a large Vintages section at his local store. He began reading their monthly magazines and exploring new releases, which deepened his passion for wine. This enthusiasm eventually led him to travel to various wine regions. He started collecting wine in the late 1990s, purchasing mostly from the LCBO, with additional acquisitions from Toronto auctions and visits to vineyards. His collection was always stored in a temperature-controlled wine cellar, built by Rosehill Wine Cellars, prior to arriving at Iron Gate.
The scores for 1999 Domaine Dujac Clos St Denis Grand Cru - Vinous - 96, Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy - 96, CellarTracker - 94. The rating for 1999 Domaine Dujac Clos St Denis Grand Cru is 96 points from Burghound, Allen Meadows and the tasting note - There is just a trace of bricking. Hints of menthol and spice are present on the full-on floral-inflected red and dark berry fruit that offers outstanding complexity as well as the initial hints of secondary character. On the palate the sense of elegance flashed by the nose continues with its refined yet dense mouth feel that is at once succulent and powerful, all wrapped in a gorgeously persistent and equally complex finale. This is pretty much textbook Clos St. Denis and while this could be enjoyed now, the underlying structure communicates clearly that this is still developing. Terrific.
