This Toronto based consignor has been collecting over 40 years. He acquired all of his wine directly from the LCBO and most were OWCs. The bottles have been meticulously stored in perfect climate controlled conditions prior to coming to Iron Gate.
The wine in this lot has a score of 96 from Robert Parker and the following tasting note -The first vintage for Jennifer Williams, 2006, was a low-crop year, with only 2,743 cases produced. The final blend harkens back to the first two vintages of Spottswoode, in being almost 100% Cabernet Sauvignon (1.5% Cabernet Franc with the rest Cabernet Sauvignon). This wine is flowery with terrific fruit intensity and classic Spottswoode elegance and purity. Deep ruby/purple color, youthfulness still to this day and plenty of breadth, depth and richness. An underrated vintage, sandwiched between 2005 and another great one, 2007, this is a sleeper year and a beautiful wine that should drink well at least for another 20-25 years.
