A Toronto based consignor and member of the wine community whose collection is largely focused on Burgundy. He has been collecting wine for a long time and is starting to pare down his cellars in hopes that others will enjoy and learn about wine.

The tasting note for 2008 Bouchard Pere Fils Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru is from Allen Meadows, The Burghound and the score is 94 - This is also wonderfully elegant with high-toned, pure and airy aromas of white flower, light toast, spiced pear and a hint of green apple that gives way to supple yet detailed mineral-suffused middle weight flavors that are perhaps even more refined than those of the Perrières, all wrapped in a balanced, stylish and lingering finish. As good as this is, and it is very good, it's not necessarily leagues better than the Meursault “Perrières, just different though it will most likely require a few more years to reach its apogee.
