This collection has been a 20-year journey of collecting classic producers upon release, primarily through the BCL and local Vancouver importers. Every bottle has been kept exclusively at 13C Wine Storage, a professional climate-controlled facility. Though he originally collected these wines to drink and share, he has decided to pare down his cellar now that his collection has outpaced his drinking habits.
2009 Pierre Peters Cuvee Speciale Les Chetillons Blanc de Blancs Brut Champagne Grand Cru from this lot has the following scores - Vinous 95 points, The Wine Advocate 95 points, Wine Spectator 94 points, CellarTracker 93 points. This is the tasting note for 2009 Pierre Peters Cuvee Speciale Les Chetillons Blanc de Blancs Brut Champagne Grand Cru from Robert Parker - The 2009 Les Chétillons Cuvée Spéciale Blanc de Blancs Brut blends three plots located in the terroir of Chétillon in the Côte des Blancs Grand Cru Le Mesnil. Disgorged in November 2014, Péter's prestige cuvée offers a rich and complex, chalky and buttery nose with flavors of fresh mushrooms, honey, brittle and really ripe Chardonnay fruit. However, despite its richness, the wine indicates a great purity and elegance—and this is exactly what you get on the palate. Due to its shocking purity, this 2009 is incredibly fresh and seemingly light on the palate, but rich and complex at the same time. The finish is forcefully mineral, highly complex, salty and very, very long. It is provided with a piquant grip and mouthwatering lemon flavors in the aftertaste. The total production is 7,000 bottles and every bottle you don't drink will be drunk by somebody else. Although the wine will gain further complexity, it is already exciting to drink. One of the best Blanc de Blancs I had on my 2016 tasting tours. Have a look at the price and you'll find a good argument to call this is a Best Buy.
