This consignor began building their collection in their 30s, inspired by a childhood spent observing their parents’ passion for Bordeaux and Burgundies. Acquisitions were primarily sourced through the LCBO, SAQ, and direct winery visits in Ontario and BC, later expanding to include consignment wines from select importers. With a particular focus on California Bordeaux-style reds—most notably Spottswoode, a family favourite—the collection has been meticulously preserved at a constant 13°C (55°F) in a private cellar to ensure optimal aging.
