In the mid-1980s, this consignor attended a private tasting of 1960s Barolos, followed by a vertical of Mouton Rothschild which ignited a lifelong appreciation for the complexity and depth of great wines. He began collecting soon after, sourcing primarily from the Alberta Liquor Control Board, with select high-end bottles from dealers in Washington, D.C. and San Francisco. Most bottles are carefully documented with purchase dates and stored in an insulated basement wine cellar equipped with temperature and humidity monitoring and an activated carbon air filter. The cellar maintains a consistent environment around 55°F with humidity generally over 70%.
