A passionate and seasoned collector from Toronto, who has been buying fine wine since 1978. He purchased his first case of Mouton Rothschild and Chateau Latour at the vintage store in Ottawa and many bottles through the SAQ. He and his wife love traveling to wine regions in France and Italy and they acquired numerous bottles during their journeys. After downsizing to a smaller space, he decided to reduce his collection, hoping it will find a new owner who will appreciate it as much as he has. The collection was kept in his temperature-controlled cellar before going to auction.
Producer notes - Owned and run by the legendary Lalou Bize-Leroy, Maison Leroy is one strand of the Leroy group, which also includes Domaine Leroy and Domaine d’Auvenay. The négociant business which is based in Auxey-Duresses was originally founded in 1868 by François Leroy, winemaker and owner of vines in prime sites such as Meursault, Pommard, Chambertin, Musigny, Clos Vougeot and Richebourg. This Échezeaux Grand Cru is from the 1969 vintage, a very fine year for Burgundy producing wines with remarkable fruit intensity.
