Based in Montreal, this consignor has always had a passion for farming and was once a part-owner of a winery in Oregon. His journey into wine collecting began in 2005 when he acquired a collection from a SAQ cellar owner, soon after which he started investing in Bordeaux futures. Except for the Vice Versa, which was purchased directly from the winery, his entire collection was sourced through the SAQ. Every bottle has been carefully stored in his custom-built, climate-controlled underground cellar by Mr. St-Laurent.
Winemaker notes - To Kalon means “the place of highest beauty.” Power. Structure with grace. There is a self-possession to wines that hail from To Kalon, and this is the ideal we aspire to every year. The wines can be mesmerizing. Humbling. Transporting. When we have this hair-raising encounter with the sublime while tasting the new wine out of barrel, we know we’re close to the mark. Planted since 1868, Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard is not only one of the greatest Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards in the Napa Valley, it is one of the finest in the world. This giant alluvial fan of gravelly soils offers perfect drainage. August and imposing, the vineyard always gives a wine with pronounced cassis, turned soil, and graphite aromas and a texture that is simply luxuriant. It is to Oakville what Château Latour is to Pauillac - opulent, restrained, and near-immortal.
