Douglas Dillon and his wife, Phyllis Chess Ellsworth.〔 She came to live in Paris, France, with her family when her father became American Ambassador in the 1950s. She initially found work with the ''Paris Review''. After her marriage to Prince Charles of Luxembourg she discovered an interest in wine and the family interest in Haut-Brion.〔 From 1975 to 2008, Joan Dillon held the presidency of Domaine Clarence Dillon. Her husband, Philippe de Noailles, Duc de Mouchy, was general manager. Under their direction the company bought Château La Mission Haut-Brion, Château Laville Haut-Brion and Château La Tour Haut-Brion in 1983. In 2008 Prince Robert of Luxembourg, her son by her marriage to Prince Charles of Luxembourg, became president of Domaine Clarence Dillon. ''Wine Enthusiast Magazine'' describes Dillon as "a larger-than-life lady, with an indefinable, cultured, mid-Atlantic accent."〔
