In the late 1980s and mid 1990s, this collector’s interest in wine blossomed during visits to the Bordeaux and Champagne regions of France, as well as Tuscany. In the early 2000s he intensified his acquisitions, evolving into a devoted collector. The core of his collection is predominantly French wines from the Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne regions, Italian wines from Piedmont and Tuscany, and a selection from California. All the bottles were sourced from the SAQ and LCBO. Notably, Bordeaux wines were acquired as futures, while others were obtained upon release. To ensure optimal conditions, the wines were stored professionally in third-party temperature and humidity-controlled cellars and for the past 15 years have been in his home cellar where temperature and humidity are meticulously regulated.
The score for 2005 Chateau Troplong Mondot St Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classe B is 100 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The 2005 Troplong Mondot is a blend of 90% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc. It was emotional tasting this wine, thinking of the late Christine Valette, who made this compelling wine while battling with considerable courage against an insidious disease. It is a great effort and a superstar of the vintage. Dense purple, it offers notes of white chocolate, blackberry, cassis and licorice as well as a hint of truffle and some subtle background oak. Full-bodied, multi-layered, and spectacularly pure and rich, it is a tour de force, and a great tribute to an incredible woman. Remarkably youthful, this wine probably needs another 4-8 years of bottle age, and should keep for 20 or more years. Kudos to the late Christine Valette!
