Driven by the allure and mystery of discovering new wineries and historic locations, this collector has spent twenty years exploring the connection between wine and humanity. He built his collection through global travel, the LCBO, and Zachy’s in New York, selecting each bottle with a focus on learning and enjoyment. Throughout the years, the wines have rested undisturbed in a temperature-controlled Eurocave environment. Collected with love and laughter, these bottles are now offered with the same spirit in which they were acquired.

This is the tasting note for 1996 Chateau Mouton Rothschild Pauillac from Robert Parker - The last time I tasted the 1996 Mouton Rothschild (maybe a couple of years ago?), I recall it was a bit broody and closed. This showing was anything but Deep garnet in color, it sashays out of the glass with lavishly dressed, gregarious crème de cassis, baked blackberries and plum pudding scents plus touches of menthol, fenugreek, star anise and sandalwood with fleeting glimpses at dried rose petals and oolong tea. The full-bodied palate is richly fruited, opulent and oh-so seductive, with bags of youthful black fruit and lovely finely grained tannins, finishing with fantastic freshness and length.
