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 1983 Chateau Margaux is 97 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - One of the wines I opened to celebrate the end of harvest in Burgundy this year was a bottle of the 1983 Château Margaux, and I was blessed with a perfect cork, something that isn't a given with this vintage. Offering up beautiful aromas of sweet cassis, cigar box, petroleum jelly and violets, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and enveloping, with a fleshy core of fruit, melted tannins and a long, aromatic finish. Fully mature today, now is a great time to open bottles.
