This consignor, located in Alberta, became interested in wine and port over 20yrs ago as he was getting into the cigar business. He was fascinated by the similarities between cigars and wine such as terroir, blending and aging. He began to buy wine for cigar pairing events which led him to collecting. He had assistance from a friend who could not drink but had a keen interest in vintage port. All bottles were purchased at retail wine shops around Edmonton. A large portion came from DeVine Wines and Spirits. He stored the collection in a walk-in humidor in the basement of his cigar shop. The temperature and humidity were controlled by greenhouse monitors.
The score for 2009 Chateau Leoville Poyferre St Julien is 98 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Having retreated into its shell, the deep garnet colored 2009 Léoville Poyferré gives up slowly revealing notions of cigar boxes, pencil lead, charcoal, rose hip tea and fragrant earth with a core of preserved plums, crème de cassis, espresso and Indian spices. Full, rich, seductive and voluptuously fruited in the mouth, the palate features firm yet beautifully velvety tannins and seamless freshness, finishing very long and spicy.
