His interest in collecting wine began over 20 years ago while living in Chicago, driven by a simple curiosity about why he enjoyed certain bottles so much more than others. That curiosity quickly led him to Bordeaux—especially Merlot-heavy blends with a softer edge—and Tuscan wines built around the Sangiovese grape. He grew particularly fond of reliable producers like Antinori, who consistently deliver great quality across their entire range. Rather than chasing ultra-expensive trophy bottles, his focus remains on finding the sweet spot between price and performance, making Left Bank Second Growths and solid vintage years the backbone of his selection. To keep everything in peak condition, he relies on Sub-Zero wine fridges, preferring their steady, reliable temperature control over standard cellar storage.
2010 Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou St Julien from this lot has the following scores - James Suckling 100 points, Jeb Dunnuck 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2010 Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou St Julien from Robert Parker - with a score of 99 points. Very deep garnet in color, the 2010 Ducru-Beaucaillou is just slightly closed to begin, featuring subtle wafts of baked plums, espresso and bay leaves before kicking it up a notch with expressive notes of blackcurrant cordial, chargrilled meats, woodsmoke and crushed rocks plus a tantalizing touch of truffles. Full-bodied, concentrated and oh-so-decadently fruited in the mouth, the palate is built like a brick house with firm, ripe, grainy tannins and bold freshness supporting the tightly wound flavor layers, finishing with epic length and depth..
