A passionate Calgary collector of primarily US wine. All purchased on release and stored in a 600 bottle Vintage Keeper in his home. Wine is being sold as the collector is moving to Napa, CA and does not want the expense of bringing wine into the US.
Producer notes- Martin Ray is made in the old Martini & Prati winery by Courtney Benham, founder of Blackstone Winery. His collection of appellation Cabernets, from Napa Valley's Stag's Leap District, Mt Veeder, Howell Mountain, and Santa Cruz Mountains, are fine values, making this label something of a special discovery.
