Domaine Clarence Dillon

Primum Familiae Vini Honours Generational Excellence at Le Grand Palais On Tuesday, February 10th, under the soaring glass nave of Le Grand Palais, family history was not only shared; it was honoured. After passing through the newly restored Clarence Dillon Rotunda, the twelve families of Primum Familiae Vini (PFV) and its President Prince Robert de Luxembourg gathered to champion a philosophy that places continuity and a commitment to excellence above all else. The guests enjoyed rare vintages poured from magnum bottles personally by the family members who crafted them, alongside a cocktail dînatoire curated by the two-Michelin-starred Restaurant Le Clarence, fostering an atmosphere of conviviality and shared purpose.

From the Collections of the Domaine Clarence Dillon, Château Haut-Brion Library: What The President of the United States has to say about France and her wines. On taxes related to wines: “I rejoice, as a Moralist, at the prospect of a reduction of the duties on wine, by our national legislature. it is an error to view a tax on that liquor as merely a tax on the rich. it is a prohibition of it’s use to the midling class of our citizens…” On his great belief in and affection for France: “She will rise like a giant from her slumbers. Her soil and climate, her arts and eminent science, her central position and free constitution, will soon make her greater than she ever was.” Thomas Jefferson Autograph Letter Signed, to The Baron Hyde de Neuville, December 13, 1818, Monticello.
