Wine Around the World with: Billionaires...

STUDIO OCHENTA
About this episode

 Starting a business is hard. Starting a business in another country and another language is even harder. But that didn’t stop this duo from taking an idea and turning it into a lifestyle brand. Patrick and William are two American men that enjoyed the finer things in life and thought, why not do more with this? 


A chance meeting on a flight to France, and a champagne and cognac brand was born. Here’s the story of William Benson and Patrick Ductant of Billionaire’s Row.
