Prior to starting his collection this consignor was a chef and learned a lot about wine and its ability to enhance the dining experience from some of the sommeliers he worked with. He trained in classical French and Italian cuisine and much of his collection consists of California Cabernets and full- bodied Italian wine to pair with meat-centric dishes. He purchased hi wine from the LCBO and larger Ontario agencies and it was always stored in a temperature-controlled cellar.
The score for 2018 Cliff Lede Vineyards Poetry Cabernet Sauvignon Stags Leap District is 100 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Composed of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 1% Cabernet Franc, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Poetry prances out of the glass with impressively flamboyant scents of blackberry compote, blueberry preserves, blackcurrant pastilles and candied violets, giving way to nuances of dried roses, menthol, powdered cinnamon and aniseed with a waft of cedar chest. Full-bodied, the palate is impactful yet maintains compelling restraint, featuring layers of crunchy black fruits, exotic spices and floral hints, framed by firm, exquisitely ripe tannins and seamless freshness, finishing with epic length and depth. This is one of those beguiling 2018 Napa Cabernets that is simply going to blow you away!
