An Ontario based collector that started collecting 14 years ago, after a life-altering tasting experience with a bottle of Harlan Estate. The entirety of his collection was sourced direct from wineries, the LCBO and the SAQ. None of the wines offered are from auction. Since acquisition, all his wines have been stored in a residential, temperature and humidity-controlled custom cellar before being brought to auction.
The score for 2015 DRC Grands Echezeaux Grand Cru is 94+ points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The 2015 Grands Échézeaux Grand Cru is more brooding and reserved than the Échézeaux, opening in the glass with notes of raspberry, plum preserve, currant leaf, blood orange, hints of the forest floor to come and, again, a rich framing of new oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with notable structural amplitude and a long, authoritative and firmly tannic finish. This is always a wine that takes a long time to show all its cards, and the 2015 is no exception, but the raw materials indicate that patience will bear dividends. Cropped at 30 hectoliters per hectare and harvested September 11 and 12.
