A hospitality veteran and wine import professional with over 15 years in the industry, the collector earned his International Sommelier Guild certificate in the early 2000s. For over two decades, he has maintained his private collection to a maximum of 400 bottles, occasionally releasing select parcels to maintain this cap. Sourced primarily from licensed retail and warehouse channels in British Columbia and Alberta—with select premium bottles acquired through trusted New York retail partners—the entire collection has been kept exclusively in professional, off-site climate control. It was housed long-term at Griffin Wine Storage before moving to its current pristine facility in Vancouver, meticulously maintained at 13°C.

This is the tasting note for 2010 Chateau Angelus St Emilion Grand Cru from Robert Parker - The deep garnet colored 2010 Angélus is an atomic bomb of powerful fruit scents from the moment the cork is pulled! Boysenberries, stewed plums, blackcurrant cordial and black raspberries all burst from the glass, followed up by nuances of tar, star anise, mocha and unsmoked cigars plus a waft of camphor. The big, rich, full-bodied palate is built like a brick house, featuring super firm, ripe, grainy tannins and tons of freshness to support the taut, muscular black fruits, finishing very long and savory. It's starting to enter its drinking window, but based on this tasting, I would recommend waiting another 3-5 years before broaching and then drinking it over the next 40+ years.
