“When autumn arrives, I love the way my diet changes and consequently the kinds of wine I drink. Old white Burgundy with mushrooms, for example. With friends the other night we sautéed wild mushrooms and downed a magnum of François Jobard’s 1982 Meursault Genevrières. Wow! I hope the good Lord put some of that in my extraterrestrial cellar.”
