This consignor, located in Alberta, became interested in wine and port over 20yrs ago as he was getting into the cigar business. He was fascinated by the similarities between cigars and wine such as terroir, blending and aging. He began to buy wine for cigar pairing events which led him to collecting. He had assistance from a friend who could not drink but had a keen interest in vintage port. All bottles were purchased at retail wine shops around Edmonton. A large portion came from DeVine Wines and Spirits. He stored the collection in a walk-in humidor in the basement of his cigar shop. The temperature and humidity were controlled by greenhouse monitors.
The score for 2000 Taylor's Fladgate Vintage Port is 98 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Among the most saturated blue/purple/black-colored examples of the vintage, Taylor's 2000 tastes like a young vintage of Chateau Latour on steroids. Aromas of graphite, blackberry liqueur, creme de cassis and smoke jump from the glass. Spectacularly concentrated and enormously endowed, with sweetness allied to ripe tannin, decent acidity, and layer upon layer of fruit and extract, this is the leading candidate for the port of the vintage. Anticipated maturity - 2010-2040.
