“Needless to say I am very proud and happy about this honour. I have been drinking Alsace wines regularly since my teens and know all the producers there very well, have guided over a hundred masterclasses on Alsace wines over the years and regularly feature then in the courses of the TerroirSense Wine Academy that I direct and an President of here in Shanghai. I am very grateful that Hugh Johnson, Margaret Rand, and their team have asked me to take over this prestigious assignment, and I will do my best not just for the guide but also to showcase and highlight all that is great about Alsace’s wines, its great people, and amazing diversity of terroirs”.<\/p>\n
