Reported by his son Bart.
He was a titan. I still have a copy of "The Great Vintage Wine Book" he signed for me.

I'm saddened by his passing. He was a huge influence on me and really fueled my interest in old Vintage Ports.

I’ll never forget his articles in Decanter. They exuded a love of wine in a way that few can match in print.
