Sort a grid by default

Vaadin 6 / 7 / 8

I wrote a grid but it appears without sorting. How to displayed sorted grid by date column? It should be super easy but I can not find a solution

    @PostConstruct
    private void init() {

        addColumn(Person::getDate)
                .setCaption("Date");

        addColumn(Person::getName)
                .setCaption("Name");

I think this is what you want:

 grid.sort(nameColumn, SortDirection.DESCENDING);
