This collection reflects a passion for wine that was shared by Champlain Charest, a pioneer of private wine collecting in Québec. Beginning around 2012, the consignor built the collection with care, sourcing almost exclusively from the SAQ to ensure provenance and quality. All bottles have been stored in a temperature- and humidity-controlled wine cellar, preserving them in optimal conditions.
1982 Petrus Pomerol from this lot has the following scores - Jeannie Cho Lee (formerly Asian Palate) 98 points, Vinous 97 points, The Wine Advocate 97 points, Wine Spectator 96 points. This is the tasting note for 1982 Petrus Pomerol from Robert Parker - Offering up aromas of sweet plums, fruitcake, warm spices, smoke, caramel and cedar, the 1982 Pétrus is medium to full-bodied, sweet and fleshy, built around powdery tannins that assert themselves on the somewhat firm finish. Served blind next to Trotanoy and Lafleur, Pétrus exhibits less sensuality than the former and less concentration and character than the latter, landing in third place. It remains a very attractive wine, but the great Pétrus of the decade of the 1980s is clearly not the 1982 but rather the monumental 1989..
