This consignor started his collection in the late 1980s after a friend from Scotland introduced him to Port. What began with a few bottles grew into a serious hobby involving plenty of research and purchasing bottles, especially French and Italian wines, Champagnes, Ports dating from the 1950s to today. Most of his bottles were sourced through the LCBO, SAQ, and auctions in Chicago. He keeps the collection within temperature-controlled units and a dedicated dark room, maintaining a steady climate between 55°F and 65°F. For him, there’s a simple joy in sitting in the quiet, vibration-free space just to check on his labels and appreciate the history he’s gathered over the decades.
1990 Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Brut Vintage Reserve from this lot has the following scores - Vinous 92 points, The Wine Advocate 92 points, Wine Spectator 92 points, CellarTracker 91 points. This is the tasting note for 1990 Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Brut Vintage Reserve from Producer Notes - Born in 1777, Nicole Barbe Ponsardin married François Clicquot in 1798. Widowed at the age of 27, she resumed the business of her deceased husband. While Europe is ablaze, she managed to ship this champagne worldwide. Bold and imaginative, she presents her champagne all over Europe. Anxious to perfection, she visits the cellars at night to ensure the successful development of her vintages. She invented the riddling, bought plots in the best vineyards and actively fought against counterfeits. Madame Veuve Clicquot died in 1866 at the age of 89. Created in tribute to Madame Clicquot, La Grande Dame is marked by the pursuit of excellence- from the choice of grapes for this very special wine to the complexity of the blend composed of eight Grand Cru and the minimum ageing of six years to reach maturity, everything is done to create a great wine of Champagne.
