Pitt has stated in his claim against Jolie that the vineyard was his “profitable passion,” which reportedly grew into a multi-million-dollar, international business venture.

He is seeking damages and has asked the court to order a reversal of the sale that took place without his approval. It is not the first time the former couple has gone to court regarding property and estate issues.
