Clyde Makes the Evening News

I got a call from ABC News yesterday looking for a quote about some of the wines stolen earlier this year from the French Laundry and Alexander's Steak House. Having just tasted through the wines of Cheval Blanc and Yquem with Pierre Lurton, the director of both estates, I told the reporter: "If you can book it over to the San Francisco store right now, you can get an interview with our owner, the real expert, and the guy who actually made some of the wines that were stolen."

The rest is history. Or, should I say, the evening news.
