A consignor who has been collecting fine wine since 1988, he became interested in it early on working for the LCBO while in university. He enjoys travels and visiting the world’s wine regions and is a founding shareholder of a wine importing company. The wine in this auction was mainly purchased in Saskatchewan and Alberta, and some in Italy. The bottles were stored in a fridge and a temperature-controlled cellar prior to auction.
The tasting note for 1986 DRC Romanee Conti Monopole Grand Cru is from Robert Parker and the score is 94 - The Romanee-Conti is very backward in 1986. The fabulous nose of oriental spices, new oak, and ripe fruit is amply displayed, but on the palate the wine is tight, hard, and very rich but still mostly inaccessible. It has a smashingly long finish and should be drinkable between 1993 and 2010. This is among the few superstars of this vintage.
