A whisky connoisseur first, the consignor became interested in wine after attending a Bordeaux tasting led by Barbara Philip MW. They tasted through the 2016 releases which included a Chateau Margaux and he found it amazing. He sourced his bottles via Alberta merchants and BC liquor stores and a few while travelling in Europe. He stores his wine in two large 350 bottle wine cellar units, both temperature and humidity controlled.
The score for 2013 Chateau Rayas Reserve Chateauneuf du Pape is 92 from Jeff Leve and the tasting note - Light style of Rayas, medium bodied, with a bright, crispy, fresh, pure red cherry center, with silky tannins and a spicy, kirsch finish. This is a very, silky, seductive, forward style of Rayas that should hold you until the 2015 comes around. Additional scores for the wine in this lot - CellarTracker 94 points .
