Judgment Of Paris: California vs. France
Judgment of Paris: The Historic 1976 Paris Tasting That Revolutionized Wine by George M. Taber is a must read for every wine aficionado. George, the only journalist present at the 1976 Paris tasting, documents sip by sip that amazing day when the results of the blind tasting put California wines and winemakers on the map. No longer would California be known for mass quantity, cheap, jug wines, but this single event transformed forever viticulture in California and around the world.
I picked this book up at Stag’s Leap Cellars, their 1973 CASK 23 Cabernet Sauvignon took first place in the Judgment of Paris.
