‘was the kind of bloke who would have known good wine’".[/b]

"Malcolm, who was a drinker and smoker, at least went out for some fresh air occasionally, playing a round of pitch-and-putt golf in Hyde Park with Michael Browning. Lunchtimes, Mark and Phil could often be found in the Ducks And Drakes pub, where they discovered the quintessentially English delights of shepherd’s pie and warm summer ale. The only one who had no fixed routine was Bon, who Browning later described as ‘decadent, sex-crazed’ but also ‘more intellectual, more poetic, more sophisticated in his tastes’ than the others. Bon, Michael added, ‘was the kind of bloke who would have known good wine’".

Is the bolded a third conditional without and IF part? He would have known a good wine if he had been offered some? Or it it some different construction?
