A Toronto-based collector whose passion in wine ignited while dining frequently in the city's restaurants. He then married a woman from France and spent extended periods travelling around the country, tasting wines from all the top regions. All the wines except the magnum of port were bought directly from local importers or the LCBO. Everything was stored from purchase at the Vintage Conservatory in Toronto.
The score for 2019 Benoit Ente Bourgogne Aligote Antichtone is 90 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Ente's 2019 Bourgogne Aligoté Antichtone (which now bears a moniker intended to evoke the other world of Aligoté to which this cuvée aspires to introduce us) offers up aromas of crisp orchard fruit, citrus zest and freshly baked bread. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and chiseled, it's concentrated and seamless, with tangy acids and a long, saline finish. As readers may remember, it's derived from three parcels in the commune of Puligny-Montrachet—together amounting to one hectare—that were planted in 1949, 1963 and 2002 respectively, and which are pruned in cordon.
