Tokyo is like my second home after Reims. It’s where I started my career in champagne in the early 1990s. Japan was a very small market for champagne then. Today it is by far our biggest market, and I feel very attached to Tokyo as a city. It is a fantastic, multi-layered place. You have to be patient and learn how to reveal each of the layers. If you are not open-minded, you probably won’t get there, but as soon as you understand, it’s completely endless. Life can go from ultimate refinement to crazy moments.
东京,是我老家兰斯(Reims)之外的第二故乡,上世纪90年代,我正是在这里开始香槟酒这个行当。当时的日本在公司销售版图上是个很不起眼的角色,如今它是我们公司的最大市场。我对东京这个城市也已是难以割舍:它是个美不胜收的多层次多元化城市,有足够耐心的人才能深入了解其各个层面。理念不开放的人则可能难以企及,但一旦深入了解,东京就会展现无穷魅力与内涵。从无限精致到疯狂瞬间的生活应有尽有。
