This collector started his cellar during University in his early 20's while working retail for an Ontario winery. Initially he was drawn to the wines of Italy, but over time began to focus on French wines, especially Burgundy. He has always had a great appreciation for white wine, particularly for the wines of Chablis, Loire, Austria and Germany. Generally he purchased wines from the LCBO and directly from agents (keeping track of all invoices and probably have digital or paper copies for everything).The wines were stored at home, in temperature controlled, specially built wine cellars.
The rating for 2006 Luciano Sandrone Cannubi Boschis Barolo DOCG is 98 points from Vinous and the tasting note - The 2006 Barolo Cannubi Boschis is a wine of pedigree, nuance and stylishness. Fresh and vibrant in the glass, the 2006 is developing beautifully in bottle. Sweet floral notes add lift to the dark Cannubi Boschis fruit. Sandrone's Cannubi Boschis has never been this finessed, this elegant. This is the best bottle of the 2006 I have tasted. What a head-turner it is! The rating for 2008 Luciano Sandrone Cannubi Boschis Barolo DOCG is 95 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The 2008 Barolo Cannubi Boschis is stunningly beautiful. It, too, is quite subtle and understated. The 2008 is a gorgeous, mid-weight wine laced with sweet red cherries, flowers, spices, mint and minerals. This is a decidedly feminine, gracious Cannubi Boschis that impresses for its elegance, class and finesse. Sweet floral notes add brightness on the Pinot-like, vibrant finish. The wine keeps getting better and better in the glass. This, too, is a dazzling effort. Luciano Sandrone describes 2008 as a very classic vintage. It was a year with very slow and gradual ripening. The Nebbiolo harvest started in early October and lasted the entire month. The biggest news at Sandrone is the addition of parcels in Baudana (Serralunga) and Villero (Castiglione) which will appear in Le Vigne beginning with the 2011 vintage. As for the 2008s, they are majestic.
