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 NV N.V. Rare Wine Co. (Vinhos Barbeito) Madeira Historic Series Charleston Sercial Special Reserve is 92 from Tom Cannavan and the tasting note - Lovely light amber colour. An “improved 10 Year Old”, with old wines blended in, perhaps 15% of 35 year old wine. Very fine, seductive toffee apple and Seville orange nose. Lovely palate too, with crisp, fairly austere palate with plenty of pithy acidity, but the mid-palate fills out with orange and a light chocolaty character. Lovely tangy stuff, with excellent balance and a sense of warmth and integration
