Will Nord is someone I admired greatly in those early days of the Napa Valley "renaissance" when we were all full of so many questions. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and sharing of his experience in the face of my many curiosities back then.

It was a pleasure to serve with Will on Domaine Chandon's management team back in the 1980's. I learned so much. He referred a young vineyard manager just starting out named Peter Nissen to us in 1979, and that relationship continues today. So typical of Will, always ready to help, and good at it. He will be missed. Sincere codolences to Joan and famiy.
