Formed over nearly three decades, this collection reflects a dedicated focus on age-worthy classics, primarily Bordeaux, Rioja, California Cabernet Sauvignon, and Sherry. The collector began acquiring in the late 1990s through the LCBO’s En Primeur program, later expanding directly via consignment agencies, winery-direct purchases, and selective auction buys for fine Ports. Provenance and storage have been rigorously maintained, with bottles kept in wine refrigeration before transitioning to a purpose-built, climate-controlled home cellar. Informed by his expertise as a wine importer, this collection represents a meticulously sourced and impeccably preserved personal cellar.
1996 Bodegas Muga Seleccion Especial Rioja Reserva from this lot has the following scores - Vinous 92 points, CellarTracker 90 points. 0
