Marselan could well have its moment in the coming years. There are some high profile investments in various wine regions around the world. Domaines de Barons de Rothschild have a significant planting at their Domaine de Long Dai estate in China. There are experimental plantings in California, driven by the motivation to find cheaper alternatives to Cabernet Sauvignon.
