I've always assumed that there's an element of cultural-preservation at work. Maybe the Picard vineyards are the equivalent of a British "listed building" or Canadian "national historic site". Something that someone can be the steward of, but not have total control over so as to maintain the cultural legacy.
Patrick Steward. :kelly:

It kind of is? In-universe, the Chateau Picard served as an underground base/weapons depot for the French resistance during WWII, so it's something they might have memorialized.
