An avid wine collector from Montreal. Wines were purchased through the SAQ over the last 30 years and stored in a temperature and humidity controlled home cellar before arriving at Iron Gate.
The score for 2005 Clos de Tart Grand Cru is 97 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Tasted at the pre-dinner vertical to mark Sylvain Pitiot's retirement from the domaine, the 2005 Clos de Tart Grand Cru (tasted from magnum) is bestowed a magnificent bouquet of haunting intensity and purity - wild strawberry and raspberry - every atom infused with mineral/cold stone scents with amazing focus. The palate is simply to die for. Here, a precise lattice of tannin that is incredibly framed with perfect poise and detail, there is a gentle crescendo to an incisive finish that takes your breath away. Could this be Sylvain Pitior's greatest achievement alongside the 2002? Astonishingly fine - très grand cru, très délicieux.
