Mouton VS Mouton Battle Erupts
Bordeaux first growth Château Mouton Rothschild is seeking €410,000 in damages from Domaine Mouton in Givry for “usurping†its name.
As reported by The Telegraph, Burgundy-based winemaker Laurent Mouton has been accused by the Baron Philippe de Rothschild group of displaying “a parasitic desire to ride on the great Mouton’s coat-tails.”
Domaine Mouton spans 15 hectares in Givry and produces some 60,000 bottles of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay a year for €17.50 or less.
