This collector is a self proclaimed, “Bordeaux Nut”, over 80% of is cellar is Bordeaux. He first became interested in wine on a trip to the Mosel where an unlabeled bottle of icewine enthralled his palate but his passion for Bordeaux began when his wine group introduced him to the 1982 vintage. He started to seriously collect when the 2000 vintage was released and has continued to add to his cellar since then. He purchased his wine through various outlets across the country, LCBO, SAQ, Edmonton’s The Wine Cellar and on Cambie Street in Vancouver. He stored all wine using commercial storage and in his home cellar which is kept at 54-57C.
The score for 2005 Chateau Trotanoy Pomerol is 96 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Tasted at the Trotanoy vertical in Hong Kong, the 2005 Trotanoy has been an awesome Pomerol since birth. Now at 12 years old, the "giant" is beginning to flex its muscles. It has more red than black fruit, more floral than the likes of the 2000 or 2001, beautifully defined with raspberry coulis, wild strawberry, clove and bay leaf, iris and violet unfurling with continued aeration. The palate has a pleasurable grainy texture and fine salinity. The acidity is extremely well judged, and there is the structure and backbone, perhaps even the stubbornness that defines this great vineyard. There is enormous potential here. Tasted November 2016.
