For quite some time we pestered John Clerides, owner of Marquis Wine Cellars, about the wines.
He’s a busy man, and evidently tough to please (as this video showing his look at the 2008 vintage in Bordeaux proves), but finally we got there.
The upshot is that a limited amount of the wines listed below are available in Canada for the first time, and we are delighted about that.
And big thank you to Jon Ellison as well for all his help!
They have a few other interesting new arrivals from our region as well.
The Mas des Dames 2005 (website) , some Canet Vallete from St. Chinian (website), and, of course, some great wines from Chateau de la Negly (the La Falaise 06, La Porte du Ciel 05, and Clos des Truffiers 04)
We are really looking forward to hearing from John and all at Marquis as to how the wines have been received.
