Although it has been a number of years since I had seen Jean-Pierre, I will long remember this towering man’s huge enthusiasm, energy and the work he did to improve and promote the wines of the Languedoc. Wine writer Giles Macdonogh claimed that his fingers still felt JP’s powerful and bone crushing handshake for years after they had been first introduced!
Obits and appreciations here, here and here.
