An Alberta-based consignor who has been collecting wine for a little over five years, ensuring that all bottles are properly stored in several wine fridges at a consistent 13 degrees Celsius. His primary focus is on wines from Tuscany and Burgundy, with occasional selections from other regions. While he enjoys collecting, he drinks most of what he buys. His wine comes from a variety of sources, including auctions such as L'Épicurien and Waddington’s. He frequently purchases from local stores like Willow Park, Vine Arts, and Costco, primarily in Alberta, with Zyn.ca being a particular favorite. Additionally, he buys a significant amount of wine while traveling, often picking up bottles from duty-free shops, wine stores, and other retailers in different countries.
Producer notes - Maison Leroy and Domaine Leroy are respectively a négociant and a wine estate based in the Côte de Nuits region of Burgundy. The two portfolios include some of the world's greatest Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines. The negociant house was founded by Francois Leroy, a wine merchant based in Auxey-Duresses, in 1868. It was expanded under his son Joseph and grandson Henri throughout the early 1900s, and in 1942, Henri Leroy was involved with the purchase of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti alongside Edmond Gaudin de Villaine. Leroy and Villaine saw massive potential in the plots and vines DRC already held and, rather than see the domaine split up among various proprietors, decided to buy it together.
