A long-time client of Iron Gate, this consignor first became interested in wine when he attended a Wine Spectator’s tasting, and someone opened a 1988 Tignanello. The bouquet and palate were an amazing shock to his senses. He began collecting fine wine in 2008 and built his cellar shortly after that. Wines were purchased through the LCBO and SAQ and stored in a temperature and humidity-controlled cellar.
The wine in this lot has a score of 93 from Wine Spectator and the following tasting note -A broader style, showing fresh peach, apricot, mango and kumquat notes. There's good underlying acidity, but with sweetness and flesh to match it. Has a fine, refreshing finish. Furmint, Hárslevelü and Muscat. Drink now through 2030. 235 cases made." (06/08) Nyulaszo has always produced aszu wines that have contributed most to the house style of Royal Tokaji. Its 18 hectares, to the east of Mad, are contiguous with the St Tamas vineyard. The translation in English is 'to catch hares'. Its red volcanic topsoil produces very elegant, lively wines. Incredible depth of flavours make this vineyard a favourite with Burgundy lovers. Nyulaszo is one of the most sought after vineyards, though the name is not easy to pronounce. It is a favorite at the Windsor Castle!
