When this Niagara based consignor was training to be a chef, 40 years ago, his mentor invited him to a tasting where he tried a 1953 Remoissenet Clos de Reas. Enthralled by the complexity of the aromas and flavours he slowly started to build his own collection. Although he has wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and California, he has a passion for Rieslings from the Mosel region and Sauternes. Most of his collection was purchased through LCBO/Vintages and the SAQ, with a small portion coming from Century Liquor in New York. The sauternes were stored in a Vintage Keeper at 58 degrees and the rest were stored in a stone wall lined cellar, temperature and humidity controlled
Producer notes- We have been working ecologically since 2012. This is an exciting challenge that I really enjoy. In addition to our organic cultivation, nature is also our winemaking, because we completely avoid any fining agents. Our single-vineyard wines are harvested in 2,000-year-old cultural landscapes where the soil gives the wine its special stamp. We are proud to have reduced the influence of the cellar industry in recent years so that the special nature of the soil can be tasted. With our wines everyone can taste what is special about the location. Tasty and characterized by the soil, the best that can come from grapes. Timeless because we don't follow fashion trends.
