A Vancouver-based cellar who began collecting when Rauzan Segla and Bonnes Mares were accessible for under $10. The collector began dedicating any little bit of extra money he had to buying wine, primarily Bordeaux and Burgundy, and he never stopped. Nearly everything was purchased directly on release, from trusted retailers in BC, Alberta, Washington, California, and New York. Initially storing everything in a climate controlled home cellar, he expanded into professional storage some years ago. It recently became obvious that he had acquired far more wine that he could consume, and Iron Gate is delighted to work with this client to bring this collection to auction.
2016 Domaine Bonneau du Martray Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru from this lot has the following scores - Jeannie Cho Lee (formerly Asian Palate) 96 points, Tim Atkin, MW 96 points, Vinous 95 points, Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy 95 points, The Wine Advocate 94 points. This is the tasting note for 2016 Domaine Bonneau du Martray Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru from Robert Parker - The 2016 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is showing superbly from bottle, unwinding in the glass with a classy bouquet of crisp green apple, pears, almond paste, fresh pastry and Meyer lemon. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, concentrated and precise, with serious depth, tangy acidity, and chewy structuring dry extract while remaining elegantly textural. Intense and complete, it's an immensely promising wine which augers well for Bonneau du Martray's future..
