Growing up, wine was a staple of his family’s table and remains central to his own celebrations today. His collecting journey began in earnest in 2014 after completing a 400-bottle custom cellar; motivated by the sight of empty racks, he began sourcing premium bottles through the LCBO and during business travels across Canada. While his palate now spans a balance of Old and New World styles, his collection remains anchored by a sentimental focus on Australia—the origin of the first bottle he shared with his wife. This consignment features a notable selection of Penfolds; the Grange bottles were maintained in their original wooden cases, with all wines stored horizontally in a dedicated, climate-controlled environment to ensure pristine provenance.

This is the tasting note for 2004 Penfolds Grange Bin 95 from Robert Parker - Gago opened two bottles of this wine, both of which showed signs of past seepage, hence my question mark after the rating. I suspect pristine bottles will show better than these did. A bit mossy and sullen, the 2004 Grange is going through a cranky adolescence. Mocha, cedar and dark fruit on the nose are echoed on the palate of this full-bodied, concentrated wine. It's dark and rich, just needs another 5-6 years to emerge on the other side. 2005 Penfolds Grange Bin 95 from this lot has the following scores - The Wine Advocate 97 points, Wine Spectator 97 points, Falstaff Magazine 96 points, James Halliday 96 points, Jeremy Oliver 95 points, The Wine Front 95 points. This is the tasting note for 2005 Penfolds Grange Bin 95 from Robert Parker - Containing just a dollop of 4.1% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2005 Grange is about 85%+ Barossa fruit with the remaining proportions coming from McLaren vale and Coonawarra. It was aged for 18 months in 100% new American oak hogsheads. The nose begins a bit animal with some smoked game, mincemeat and bacon notes emerging over the freshly crushed, sun-warmed blackberries, black currant cordial, earth, black truffles, anise and allspice. Rich and full with very firm very fine tannins and very crisp acid, it gives a long finish layered with coffee, mincemeat and toast. . 2006 Penfolds Grange Bin 95 from this lot has the following scores - The Wine Advocate 98 points, Wine Spectator 98 points, Falstaff Magazine 98 points, James Halliday 98 points, Bob Campbell 98 points, The Wine Front 97 points, Wine & Spirits Magazine 96 points, Jeb Dunnuck 96 points. This is the tasting note for 2006 Penfolds Grange Bin 95 from Robert Parker - Made from fruit coming predominantly from the Barossa Valley this year (97%) and containing 2% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2006 Grange has been added to my list of favorite recent vintages. Deep garnet-purple colored, it’s still a little youthfully mute, offering notes of warm cherries, black currants, anise, coffee and toast with underlying hints of soy, yeast extract, black olives and Indian spices. Tight-knit and solidly structured on the medium to full-bodied palate, the concentrated fruit is densely coiled around the firm grainy tannins and very crisp acidity at this stage, but promises something very special in the years to come. It finishes very long, complex and layered with the cedar poking through the fruit purity. Patience is required for this vintage
