A Vancouver-based cellar who purchased all wines on release from trusted importers/agents. Wines were stored professionally from the time of purchase. Looking to pair down his cellar, Iron Gate is delighted to bring these wines to auction.
The score for 2011 Vincent Dauvissat Les Preuses Chablis Grand Cru is 94 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Vincent Dauvissat's 2011 Chablis Les Clos smells strikingly maritime in its evocations of sea breeze, kelp, driftwood, clam stock and crustacean shell reduction. And if those scents don-t get your salivary glands pumping then their palate transmigration onto a fleshy yet buoyant and refreshing palate is bound to do the trick. This finishes with impressive sheer persistence, and if it doesn-t display quite the transparency or energy that one meets with from Les Clos at its best, I would urge those lucky enough to be able to acquire some to follow bottles through at least 2020 as I am sure the wine will yet have more to say for itself.
