Robert parker's wine tasting tour
Robert parker, Jr. and robert parker were born in Baltimore, Maryland, USA on 1947. He graduated with honors from the University of Maryland, majoring in history and minoring in art history. After that, he entered the University of Maryland Law School and graduated from 1973. During the half year of 10, he became a lawyer and a senior lawyer, and later became an assistant legal adviser to the General Chamber of Commerce of Baltimore Agricultural Credit Bank. 1On March 9, 984, he resigned as an assistant legal adviser and began to concentrate on wine writing. His interest in wine began at 1967, when he was visiting his girlfriend (now his wife of 30 years) at the University of Strasbourg in Alsace, France. 1975, he began to think of writing an "independent, consumer guide" about wine tasting, mainly because there was a great lack of reliable and professional wine quality information at that time. Relatives and friends advised him to achieve higher attainments in law, but wine writing is only a romantic and unprofitable major. Anyway, in 1978, the idea of publishing wine tasting was formally formed. The first issue of TheWineAdvocate is distributed free of charge to wine consumers who have purchased mail-order catalogues from several major wine retailers. 1In August, 978, less than 600 people began to subscribe to this magazine. More than 20 years later, Wine Advocate magazine has more than 40,000 subscribers, covering all American states and 37 countries. Today, any expert observer admits that wine advocates not only in the United States, but also in France, Britain, Switzerland, Japan, Taiwan Province Province, Singapore, Russia, Mexico, Brazil and China have an important influence on the buying behavior and trends of serious wine consumers. In addition, the Wine Initiative was published in French. In addition to tasting and writing for the bimonthly Wine Advocate published in Barton, Maryland, Parker is also a guest editor of Wine Magazine and regularly writes for Yuan Ye, a modern English poetry magazine. He is also a wine critic of L'Express magazine and the first foreigner in the magazine to take the post of wine critic. 1985165438+1October, Parker's first book Bordeaux was published by Simon Schuster.
