This Vancouver based collector became fascinated with wine when he was training in the hotel and restaurant industry and had to learn about it. He was constantly trying new wine and that evolved to an interest in rare and cult wines. He began collecting 20 years ago and purchased the bottles through a private shop. Prior to auction the wine was stored in a temperature and humidity-controlled Caravin cellar.
The score for 2013 Chateau Rayas Pignan Chateauneuf du Pape Reserve is 94 points from Vinous and the tasting note - Vivid red. Displays expansive, spice- and mineral-accented aromas of black raspberry and blueberry, along with suggestions of white pepper and lavender oil. Stains the palate with intense red and dark berry flavors, showing a suave blend of power and energy. Quiet rich for this bottling, finishing with excellent thrust, supple tannins and a hint of smokiness lingering.
