Where They Are Now
At Barton & Guestier Château Magnol in Blanquefort, France, the work is paced by season, judgment, and consistency. Laurent Prada serves there as head winemaker, and the role is defined less by display than by continuity: keeping quality aligned from one stage to the next, and treating collaboration as part of the craft rather than an accessory to it.
