Growing up in the Okanagan Valley, this Calgary-based consignor was immersed in wine from a young age. He worked in the hospitality industry during summers while attending university and completed several courses and certifications in wine. He began collecting wine approximately eight years ago, sourcing bottles through AGLC, BCL, and LCBO. He also traveled several times to the USA and Europe, always bringing bottles back with him or arranging for delivery. His collection is stored in temperature-controlled fridges.
The rating for 1982 Chateau Cos d'Estournel St Estephe is 96 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The 1982 Cos d'Estournel dominates Saint-Estèphe in this vintage (for my money, its leading competitor is Haut-Marbuzet, by the way). Remarkably youthful and saturated in appearance, it exhibits inviting aromas of sweet berry fruit, plums, licorice and pencil shavings, followed by a full-bodied, fleshy, lusty, almost unctuous palate of notable concentration and depth. Its fleshy core of fruit is still framed by sweet, powdery tannins.
