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 2013 Ulysses Vineyard Napa Valley is 94 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Hints of woodsmoke and licorice mark the nose of the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon, which is beginning to show just a bit of evolution in its deep garnet color. Cigar box and cassis notes emerge with air, while the wine is full-bodied, plush and supple—almost creamy in texture—then adds hints of pencil shavings and graphite on the lingering finish.
