A Consignor, located in Vancouver, who has been collecting wine since the 1990s. While in university he worked at one of Calgary’s first private wine stores, J. Webb Wine and it was there that he learned about wine and developed an interest in collecting. All the wine was purchased from private stores in Vancouver and Calgary except for the Mondavi wines which came straight from the winery. He stored all bottles in a temperature and humidity controlled Vintage Keeper wine cabinet prior to them coming to auction.
The tasting note for 1998 Chateau Mouton Rothschild Pauillac is from Robert Parker and the score is 97 - Composed of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc, the 1998 Mouton Rothschild is deep garnet-brick in color with lovely crème de cassis, dried roses, hoisin and baking spice notes with underlying notions of dried cherries and mulberries plus touches of wood smoke, incense and forest floor. Medium to full-bodied and packed with rich fruit framed by firm, chewy tannins, it is stacked with complex, evolving flavors and finishes with incredibly long-lasting perfumed notes. According to winemaker Philippe Dhalluin, this needs about three hours of decanting at this stage. I simply love the place this wine is in right now, possessing plenty of mature, tertiary characters yet still sporting bags of fruit. It won’t be fading anytime soon either and should cellar nicely for 20-25+ more years.
