A long-time client of Iron Gate’s, this consignor has always enjoyed wine and began to collect in earnest in 2008. He built a custom 1000 bottle cellar at his lake house and all wine is stored there or with Iron Gate. The wines on offer in this auction were all purchased through LCBO and Iron Gate auctions.
The score for 2004 Masseto Toscana is 97 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The stunning 2004 Masseto (100% Merlot) presents layers of sweet jammy dark fruit and mineral notes that burst forth from the glass with notable length, purity and delineation. It is a decidedly elegant and super-refined Masseto that continues to integrate its 100% new oak well, showing extraordinary class and fine, silky-textured tannins that caress the palate on the long finish. The 2004 will be hard to resist in its youth as it is incredibly delicious even now, yet it promises to develop gracefully to at least age 20. It is a phenomenal effort that is not to be missed.
