This Toronto based collection is nicely rounded with wine from major regions, the vast majority being Bordeaux. He inherited the pre 1990 wine from his father who was also a serious collector. His wine was procured from Sherry Lehmann and a distributor located in Las Vegas. These wines were initially stored in a cold cellar and were moved to wine fridges in the mid 90’s. All the wine post 1990 was purchased by the consignor from the LCBO. All the 1998 Bordeaux was bought in honor of his son’s birth year and is being sold on his behalf. All was stored in a temperature and humidity controlled environment.
The score for 2000 Quinta de Roriz Douro DOC is 91 from Wine Enthusiast and the tasting note - A powerful, oak-aged wine with fine, ripe red fruits and black tannins. This Reserva wine has 12 months French oak aging, which gives it complexity, but the richness of the fruit gives a great firm balance to the wood. It is still young
