Jean-Guillaume Prats’ professional life has changed enormously since February 1 last year. On that Friday he walked out of Château Cos d’Estournel in St-Estèphe and, the following week, started his new job at the Paris headquarters of LVMH’s wine interests. As the public face of Cos, sold to Swiss businessman Michel Reybier in 2000 by his father Bruno, Prats was no stranger to airports and long-haul flights. But now, instead of the route between Bordeaux and winemaker dinners in Asia, his travel schedule takes him to virtually all corners of the wine world, as well as frequent trips to London, where his boss Christophe Navarre is based.
让-纪尧姆•普拉(Jean-Guillaume Prats)的职业生涯从去年的二月一日开始发生了重大的转变。在那个周五，他走出了圣埃使戴夫(St-Estèphe)的爱士图尔庄园(Château Cos d’Estournel)，而在接下来的那一周来到了自己的新工作场所——路威酩轩(LVMH)旗下葡萄酒公司的巴黎(Paris)总部。2000年，爱士图尔庄园被让-纪尧姆的父亲布鲁诺(Bruno)出售给了瑞士商人米歇尔•雷彼埃(Michel Reybier)。在任庄园代言人期间，普拉是机场的常客，总是与长途飞行为伴，往返于波尔多(Bordeaux)和亚洲之间，出席各种酿酒师晚宴(winemaker dinner)。但是现在的情况有所不同，出行表将他安排到了几乎世界各个角落，同时还要频繁地出差伦敦(London)，因为他的老板克里斯托弗•纳瓦雷(Christophe Navarre)常驻于此。
