Ever since I was a child, I wanted to excel in everything.
I say to consumers: instead of relying totally on critics, drink what you like and like what you drink.
I feel blessed. So many men and women search and search but never find their passion, their calling, their sense of mission that would ignite their hearts and fill their lives with meaning and joy.
Making good wine is a skill; making fine wine is an art.
I am a great believer in research and innovation.
I know of no one who has been more helpful to the industry. His teachings and consultations internationally, without doubt, improved the quality of winemaking in our country. He was a friend to everyone interested in fine wine.
