A Toronto based consignor who began collecting wine in 2010. The wines brought to auction are from esteemed producers, both old and new world and were acquired from the LCBO, Iron Gate and Waddington’s auctions. All were stored in a temperature and humidity- controlled cellar.
The score for 2011 Chateau Palmer Margaux is 96 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The opaque blue/purple-colored 2011 Palmer reveals a stunning bouquet of licorice, truffles, camphor, spring flowers, black raspberries and black currants. One of the superstars of the vintage, this brilliant 2011 possesses superb concentration and purity, medium to full body, and remarkable length of close to a minute. A tour de force in winemaking, the Palmer team merits accolades for achieving this level of quality in a more challenging vintage than either 2009 or 2010. The “wine of the vintage” in Margaux, tiny yields of 20 hectoliters per hectare, a final blend of 55% Merlot and 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, and a severe selection (only 55% of the production made it into Palmer) are the reasons for this success. Winemaker Thomas Duroux continues to fine tune this already brilliant estate, producing first-growth quality wines year after year.
