A consignor located in Ottawa, came by collecting wine naturally as he comes from a family of collectors. He is attracted to the investment aspect of wine and began purchasing in February 2022. He buys through the LCBO and SAQ as well Calgary and US retailers and Iron Gate. His wine in Canada is stored in a Eurocave in his home.
The tasting note for 2000 DRC La Tache Monopole Grand Cru is from Robert Parker and the score is 96 - The 2000 La Tâche Grand Cru is showing extraordinarily well, and I can only assume that the comparatively parsimonious appreciation it has received from other wine critics is owing to insecurity concerning awarding a high score to a wine from an "off vintage." Soaring from the glass with a deep and complex bouquet of wilted rose petals, sweet wild berry fruit, exotic spices, orange rind and violets, it's full-bodied, sensual and enveloping, with a deep and layered core of fruit, melting tannins, succulent acids and a long, sapid finish.
