Brad Pitt Scores Win in Legal Battle with Angelina Jolie as Her Winery Buyers Are Ordered to Testify (Exclusive)
Brad Pitt has scored a win in his ongoing legal battle with ex-wife Angelina Jolie over Château Miraval.
In a June 17 court document obtained by PEOPLE, the Superior Court of California granted a motion from Pitt’s legal team compelling depositions from members of the Stoli Group. Investors from the spirits and wine giant, Pitt had argued, had firsthand knowledge of Jolie’s 2021 sale of the French winery the former couple co-owned to Tenute del Mondo, the wine division of the Stoli Group.
Pitt, 62, had filed court documents attempting to depose the Stoli Group’s Alexey Oliynik in June 2025. Oliynik has allegedly refused to turn over relevant documents or appear for a deposition, arguing that he could not be forced to do so as a resident of Switzerland.
