This consignor’s wine journey began in the early 1980s, when quality wines were still reasonably priced. Regular visits to the LCBO Vintages shop in Sherwood Forest, Mississauga—now closed—provided access to weekly tastings and a diverse selection. The collection grew through purchases from the LCBO, wine agents, specialty shops in BC, the U.S., Australia, and directly from wineries during travels. All bottles were stored in a refrigerated, temperature- and humidity-controlled wine cabinet to ensure optimal preservation.
This is the tasting note for 2001 Spottswoode Vineyard Winery Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley from Robert Parker - with a score of 100. The 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet with a hint of brick. It has a profoundly savory nose of smoked meats, truffles, tapenade and sautéed herbs with an amazingly fruity core of crème de cassis, preserved plums, baked cherries and blueberry pie with touches of spearmint and wilted roses twinkling in the background. Medium-bodied, elegant, very finely crafted and singing with energy, the palate delivers layer upon layer of nuanced black fruit flavors, finishing very long and very perfumed.
