MY LIGHT BULB MOMENT
One of my best professional memory is at Domaine De La Romanée Conti with Aubert de Vilaine (Owner), Bernard Noblet (Winemaker), Fabienne & Hubert, my Sommelier colleagues and Mr & Mme Lameloise, owner of the 3 Michelin Star Restaurant in the heart of the vineyards of Burgundy where I was working at the time.
