Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite): Plus ça change…

by Ray A. Goldberg, Arthur I. Segel, Elie Ofek and Carin-Isabel Knoop

Abstract

For centuries Lafite has been the most admired wine Estate in the world. How does Baron Eric de Rothschild protect this crown jewel in a conservative manner while DBR develops other Chateaux blending wine programs, reaches out to new areas such as China and begins to take a more active interest in the world's number one market—the United States.
