Stephan Reinhardt nieuwe WA man voor Duitsland

  • Dick Schinkel

    David Schildknecht in Parker-Forum :

    Effective July 1, I shall no longer be in the employ of The Wine Advocate. The opportunity and challenge of working with Robert Parker and his iconic journal, and of reporting from so many far-flung parts of the world has been a tremendous honor for which I thank him and my readers. I am looking forward to at once deepening my investigations into a few growing regions and to writing more broadly about wine. I am confident that with the arrival of Stephan Reinhardt - whose work I have enthusiastically followed and whom I have for several years had the good fortune to count as a friend - The Wine Advocate will be able to more efficiently and expeditiously deliver the authoritative tasting notes that are its stock in trade. Between now and my departure, readers will receive further reports from me on wines of Austria, Alsace, the Languedoc and the Loire.

    Meneer Parker zelf over dit thema:

    Stephan Reinhardt was an easy choice for many reasons. He is German, lives in Hamburg, and is already a recognized authority on German wine. He also makes our team “younger” as he was born in 1967, a year that forever changed my life as it put me on the path to wine writing, and even more importantly, gave me the young girl who is now my wife of 44+ years! We realize change is never easy, but we are all excited by Stephan's potential.

    Met Smakelijke Groet Dick

    Ik heb een aantal wijnboeken van Stephan Reinhardt liggen. Erg prettig om te lezen en ik kan me heel goed vinden in zijn smaakpallet. Beter dan in die van David Schildknecht. Ben er blij mee dus.

    Inmiddels een aantal reacties ontvangen van onze Duitse wijnvrienden in Moezel en Pfalz. Zij zijn er ook blij mee.

    Buiten dat is verjonging binnen de WA club ook niet verkeerd.

    Hasta luego
