An Ontario based consignor who grew up in a household where wine was always on the dinner table, he developed a taste for it early on. In 2010 he began to take collecting seriously after having tasted older vintages of Pichon Lalande and Latour. He started by sourcing wine at the LCBO but quickly turned to buying from agents, auctions, the SAQ, and retailers in the United States and Europe. Bottles have been stored in a climate -controlled cellar.
The tasting note for 2018 Domaine Leflaive Meursault Sous le Dos d Ane Premier Cru is from Robert Parker and the score is 91 - Mingling aromas of orange oil and Anjou pear with hints of white flowers, buttery pastry and toasted nuts, the 2018 Meursault 1er Cru Sous le Dos d'Ane is medium to full-bodied, chalky and incisive, with a bright spine of acidity and a mineral finish. This has turned out nicely and should reward a bit of bottle age.
