The consignor developed an interest in wine a few years ago, drawn to the way each bottle reflects a mix of history, place, and craftsmanship. He has completed WSET Level 3 with distinction and is preparing for Level 4. Most of the bottles in his collection were purchased through Canadian auctions and the Co-op Liquor Store in Alberta. All wines have been stored in a Sub-Zero wine fridge at his home to ensure proper care.
2019 Chateau Lafite Rothschild Pauillac from this lot has the following scores - The Wine Advocate 100 points, James Suckling 100 points, Falstaff Magazine 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2019 Chateau Lafite Rothschild Pauillac from Robert Parker - with a score of 100. Someone told me recently that Petrus had a second wine, so I asked Olivier Berrouet, their young, talented administrator, whether that was true, and he flatly denied it, so if any Asian wine buyers are running across second wines of Petrus in Hong Kong or on mainland China, be warned - they are not genuine. Proprietor Jean Moueix, who I believe is in his late twenties, has taken over for his father, Jean-Francois, who has largely retired, and the younger Moueix has really pushed quality even higher at this renowned estate. Anyone visiting Pomerol would have undoubtedly noticed the renovations at Petrus, as it was once one of the most modest and humble buildings in the appellation. Moreover, I suspect that multi-millionaire/billionaire collectors will have about 50 years to debate over which vintage of Petrus turns out better, the 2009 or 2010. In a perfect world, most people would love to have a few bottles of each, or at least the opportunity to taste them once in a while, as they have become more of a myth than something real, but these wines do, in fact, exist!.
