A Vancouver-based cellar who began collecting when Rauzan Segla and Bonnes Mares were accessible for under $10. The collector began dedicating any little bit of extra money he had to buying wine, primarily Bordeaux and Burgundy, and he never stopped. Nearly everything was purchased directly on release, from trusted retailers in BC, Alberta, Washington, California, and New York. Initially storing everything in a climate controlled home cellar, he expanded into professional storage some years ago. It recently became obvious that he had acquired far more wine that he could consume, and Iron Gate is delighted to work with this client to bring this collection to auction.
2005 Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou St Julien from this lot has the following scores - Decanter 98 points, Jeb Dunnuck 98 points, The Wine Advocate 97 points, The Wine Independent 97 points, Wine Spectator 96 points, Jeannie Cho Lee (formerly Asian Palate) 96 points. 2005 Chateau Leoville Las Cases St Julien from this lot has the following scores - Wine Spectator 100 points, Jeb Dunnuck 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2005 Chateau Leoville Las Cases St Julien from Robert Parker - with a score of 98 points. The 2005 Leoville Las Cases is a classic that numbers among the wines of the vintage in the Medoc. Wafting from the glass with notes of dark berries, cassis, incense, burning embers, sweet soil tones, dark chocolate and cigar wrapper, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, with a vibrant core of fruit, lively acids and sweet, powdery tannins. More elegant and refined than the hulking, uncompromising 2006, the 2005 is nevertheless a powerful, tightly wound wine that will reward further bottle age, even if it's actually quite expressive today.. 2005 Chateau Leoville Poyferre St Julien from this lot has the following scores - Decanter 98 points, James Suckling 96 points, The Wine Independent 96 points, VertedeVin 96 points. 2005 Chateau Pichon Longueville Baron Pauillac from this lot has the following scores - Wine & Spirits Magazine 96 points, Connoisseur's Guide to California Wine 96 points, Jeb Dunnuck 96 points, Vinous 95 points, Decanter 95 points, The Wine Advocate 94 points, Wine Spectator 94 points, Richard Jennings 94 points.
