A consignor from Alberta whose interest in fine wine piqued in university after tasting a great bottle at an event. Shortly after earning his master’s degree, he began collecting in earnest, fueled by a year in London that allowed for frequent trips to France and a deeper appreciation of its remarkable terroir. Over the years, his collection grew, sourced through the ALB and numerous journeys to the renowned wine regions of France, Italy, Napa, Sonoma, and the Willamette Valley. Each bottle was stored in his climate-controlled cellar prior to auction.
2018 Domaine Jean Louis Chave Hermitage from this lot has the following scores - Jeb Dunnuck 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2018 Domaine Jean Louis Chave Hermitage from Robert Parker - with a score of 99 points. Chave's 2018 Hermitage is another in a long list of legends to emerge from this meticulously run estate. Showing remarkably complex aromas of pressed violets, ground cloves and cracked peppercorns against a backdrop of cassis, blueberries and licorice, it's a super effort. Full-bodied, concentrated, rich and velvety in feel, it's seamless and long—just the complete package in a wine that's surprisingly approachable, yet should prove capable of aging effortlessly for two decades or more. 2018 Nicole Lamarche Les Suchots Vosne Romanee Premier Cru from this lot has the following scores - Tim Atkin, MW 93 points, Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy 92 points, CellarTracker 91 points.
