Join Intellectual Property Manager Walter Wolf as he presents a talk on the German occupation of France’s major wine regions during World War II. The Third Reich appointed men—whom the French dubbed sarcastically “wine Fuhrers”—to buy, commandeer, and otherwise bully high-quality wine from French wine growers. The French growers showed creativity and resourcefulness in protecting their wines and supplying the Third Reich with lesser-quality wines in what can best be described as a “triumph of the swill.”
