An Ontario-based consignor, who credits his passion for wine back to a 1982 Chateau Margaux, started his collection two decades ago. His bottles were acquired through the LCBO and SAQ. A long-time client of Iron Gate, he stores his bottles in a custom-designed home cellar that is both temperature and humidity-controlled.
The rating for 2011 Caymus Vineyards Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley is 95 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - A brilliant wine, and one of the stars of the vintage, the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Special Selection boasts aromas of blueberry pie, blackberries, cassis and white flowers. This full-bodied, velvety textured, delicious 2011 is already drinking well, and should continue to do so for 10-12 years. It is a terrific success for the vintage. Though the Wagner family is not quite the pioneer that Louis Martini, Charles Krug, Beaulieu Private Reserve, Ridge Vineyards and a few others are, they have long farmed and made the wines at Caymus Vineyards.
