An Ontario based collector that started collecting 14 years ago, after a life-altering tasting experience with a bottle of Harlan Estate. The entirety of his collection was sourced direct from wineries, the LCBO and the SAQ. None of the wines offered are from auction. Since acquisition, all his wines have been stored in a residential, temperature and humidity-controlled custom cellar before being brought to auction.
The score for 2007 Hundred Acre Ark Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain is 100 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Ark Vineyard is medium garnet colored and comes bounding out of the glass with exuberant Chinese five spice, dried rose petals, candied violets and cast iron pan scents over a core of kirsch, cassis and blackberry compote with mincemeat pie and tilled soil nuances. The palate is full-bodied, rich, achingly plush and completely packed with nuanced black fruits, delivering wonderfully satiny tannins and freshness throughout the epically long, exquisitely poised finish. Pure class.
