Prince Robert of Luxembourg at the Oscars

0:00It's March 13th, here's what's happening in entertainment. After the Oscar ceremony wraps up each year, Hollywood stars head upstairs to the governor's ball for legendary food by Wolfgang Puck and Sixth, thousand chocolate Oscar statuettes. This time around, the wines come from Domain Clarence Dillon, handpicked by its president, Prince Robert of Luxembourg. They feature reds and whites like the La Clarte de Hot Breon, 2021, and the Clarence de Hot Breon, 2015. Prince Robert has deep Hollywood ties from his own past. In his early 20s, he and his wife tried their hand at screenwriting, even signing with creative artist agency and pitching in Los Angeles. One script got optioned by Columbia Pictures, leading to lunches at top spots like early Nobu. Though the films never happened, the connection stuck. His family's wine legacy started in 1935, when his grandfather, Clarence Dillon, bought the famous Chateau Hot Breon. It passed down to his mother, Joan Dillon, to him in 2008.

1:03He's grown the business with new vineyards and blends from Bordeaux. The Oscar's gig came after Francis IV Coppola sold his wine sponsorship. Prince Robert stepped in seamlessly, joking he could send a horse head, like in the Godfather. It fits the Academy's growing international vibe, with contenders from Norway and Brazil in major categories. At the event, he rubbed shoulders with old friends like Michelle Yo, whom he knew before her everything everywhere win, and producer David Heyman, who? Optioned his first script back in their early Hollywood days. Special thanks to our sponsor for supporting this episode.
