He has lent his patronage to art exhibitions, such as a retrospective on Modern Art of the 20th Century supported by Culture Minister Frederic Mitterand. On behalf of the family, he also cares for the Domaine Bachelet vines, producing quality champagne that is served in some of the world’s most prestigious restaurants.
