A consignor who began collecting wine over 20 years ago while living in Australia, sparked by a deep fascination with how grape varieties, regions, and vintages evolve over time. His primary focus has long been Burgundy, a region he has visited on several occasions to explore vineyards, meet producers, and taste wines directly from the barrel in historic cellars. For him, the true beauty of Burgundy lies in how different domaines craft distinct personalities from the exact same terroir. Every bottle in this consignment was purchased directly through licensed Canadian wine importers via regular annual allocations, with all applicable taxes paid and full purchase records available to confirm provenance. Immediately following acquisition, the wines were transported directly to Fine Wine Reserve (FWR) for climate-controlled professional storage, where they remained undisturbed until being transferred directly to Iron Gate Auctions' Toronto location.
2020 Armand Heitz Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru from this lot has the following scores - The Wine Advocate 100 points, James Suckling 100 points, Decanter 100 points, VertedeVin 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2020 Armand Heitz Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru from Allen Meadows - with a score of 94 points. This is aromatically quite similar to the Perrières with its nose of matchstick, mineral reduction and markedly floral scents that are trimmed in just enough wood to remark upon. The wonderfully refined and intense medium weight flavors possess only average density though the bone-dry, firm, youthfully austere and stony finish displays superb length. Note well that at least some patience will be necessary as this is presently very tightly wound.
