    • 2008 January 9, Frank J. Prial, “Jean-Claude Vrinat, Owner of Famed Paris Restaurant, Is Dead at 71”, in New York Times:
      Mr. Vrinat, a nonchef who was known for his wine expertise, devoted almost all his life to Taillevent, which had been founded by his father, André, in 1946, just as Paris began its long recovery from the privations of the German occupation in World War II. The elder Vrinat opened his restaurant in the modest Hotel Worms, on the Rue St.-Georges, in the commercial Ninth Arrondissement.
