Welcome to Château Mouton.
:45:12
Baroness Philippine now heads
Mouton-Rothschild and the company.
:45:17
And of course in California,
with the Mondavis,
:45:20
we've been developing
Opus One for the past 20 years.
:45:26
That's the famous Californian wine,
Opus One.
:45:31
It's Californian?
Not Franco-Californian?
:45:35
It's definitely Californian.
Because wine is so dependent
:45:40
on soil, on terroir.
:45:42
So you can call it
Franco-Californian.
:45:45
But it's Californian.
:45:48
What you need to know
is that Mr de Eizaguirre
:45:51
is used to interviews.
:45:54
In a project like yours,
:45:57
he'll be less comfortable.
He's used to a clean frame.
:46:00
Baron Philippe and Bob Mondavi
:46:03
felt an immediate connection.
:46:06
It became the joint-venture
:46:10
which is such a gigantic
success in the US.
:46:14
- Opus One is a success?
- Absolutely.
:46:18
Today, Opus One is
the most successful winery,
:46:21
not in terms of volume,
:46:24
but in terms of sales
and profitability.
:46:28
We live in a global marketplace.
:46:33
So Bordeaux also had to adapt
:46:38
to global trends...
:46:41
Wine is culture.
:46:45
But the battle...
:46:49
is less a cultural battle
:46:55
than an economic one.
:46:58
That said,
