When this Niagara based consignor was training to be a chef, 40 years ago, his mentor invited him to a tasting where he tried a 1953 Remoissenet Clos de Reas. Enthralled by the complexity of the aromas and flavours he slowly started to build his own collection. Although he has wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and California, he has a passion for Rieslings from the Mosel region and Sauternes. Most of his collection was purchased through LCBO/Vintages and the SAQ, with a small portion coming from Century Liquor in New York. The sauternes were stored in a Vintage Keeper at 58 degrees and the rest were stored in a stone wall lined cellar, temperature and humidity controlled
The score for 2010 Dr H Thanisch Berncasteler Badstube Riesling Spatlese is 89 from Wine Enthusiast and the tasting note - Hints of exotic spices and herbs add savory tones to the concentrated stone-fruit and preserved lemon flavors on this semidry Riesling. Quite minerally on the midpalate, it finishes clean, with a puckering, lemony acidity.
