Marcus Hiles Considers The Joys of Wine Collecting


Posted July 28, 2016 by marcushileswine

In addition to being an entrepreneur and real estate developer, Marcus Hiles is also a wine collector who takes great joy in learning more about fine wines and classic vintages.

 
Marcus Hiles founded Western Rim Property Services in 1990 with the aim of supplying lavish rental homes that would meet the demand for such properties in Texas. After building the company from the ground up through his ability to anticipate market trends and invest in prime parcels of real estate, he began indulging his passion for fine wines. He is now an acclaimed collector who has built a collection that contains approximately 6,500 bottles, many of which are rare vintages that are worth thousands of dollars. His hobby brings him great joy for a number of different reasons.

Firstly, collecting wine offers him the chance to discover new vintages and winemakers that he had previously never heard of. As a man with a thirst for knowledge and a dedication to quality education, these learning opportunities often prove too good to resist, which has resulted in Hiles developing a broad range of expertise on the subject of wine that can be used for his own collecting activities, in addition to making for interesting conversation at social gatherings.

Marcus Hiles Wine is also a great appreciator of the hard work that goes into the creation of truly great wines. He relishes any chance that he has to sample a new vintage and will often spend a long time appreciating the subtle notes that are present in his wines that less experienced drinkers may not be able to spot. He also enjoys pairing his favorite wines with food, finding new combinations that are extremely satisfying to him and others who have the privilege of tasting them.

Hiles has also found that his collection opens the door for further charitable endeavors. In 2010 he sold a portion of his collection at Sotheby’s in Hong Kong, earning an astonishing $7.7 million in the process. While this is impressive in its own right, he then proceeded to donate a substantial portion of this sum to the construction of computer labs and as funding for after-school programs for inner-city children.

While his focus will always be primarily on his work as a real estate developer, Marcus Hiles will continue to collect wine and relish any opportunity that he has to build on his collection.
