An Alberta based consignor who became interested in wine after travelling through France and Italy in the late 80s and then started to collect in 1991. All the French wine was sourced directly via the liquor store they owned and purchased through the AGLC. Since taking possession the wines have been carefully stored in a professional temperature and humidity-controlled cellar.

The wine in this lot has a score of 90 from Wine Enthusiast and the following tasting note -Ripe and powerful, this is a big, bold, unfiltered Sicilian red that delivers dried figs, tobacco and berry preserves. It's almost too much of a good thing and will appeal to those looking to make a statement. Imported by Panebianco
