This consignor began his journey into collecting wine seven or eight years ago, sparked by the memorable experience of sharing a bottle of Stag’s Leap Cask 23 with a friend. Since that introduction, he has built a focused collection sourced exclusively from three reputable vendors: Wine and Beyond, Devine Wines in Edmonton, and Iron Gate Auctions. To ensure the integrity of every bottle, he has maintained them in a professional-grade wine cooler from the moment of purchase until their consignment. He is now offering these selections for auction simply because his collection has grown beyond his personal consumption rate, and his palate has recently transitioned from a preference for Bordeaux toward Burgundy.
2003 Giuseppe Quintarelli Valpolicella Classico Superiore from this lot has the following scores - The Wine Advocate 92 points, CellarTracker 92 points. 2016 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino DOCG from this lot has the following scores - James Suckling 98 points, Vinous 96 points. 2018 Petrolo Galatrona Toscana from this lot has the following scores - James Suckling 98 points, Decanter 97 points, Vinous 96 points. 2019 Conti Costanti Brunello di Montalcino DOCG from this lot has the following scores - Decanter 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2019 Conti Costanti Brunello di Montalcino DOCG from Robert Parker - with a score of 94 points. The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino offers plenty of dark fruit and spice, but the wine also shows slightly more austerity that could set it up for a roast pork or ham. There is a drying oak note of smoked cedar or redwood that dovetails into the structural impact of the wine. Yet it also shows very good momentum on the mid-palate, adding more layers or black fruit that soften the tannins.
