Series

Paris-based wine expert Steven Spurrier (Alan Rickman) heads to California in search of cheap wine that he can use for a blind taste test in the French capital. Stumbling upon the Napa Valley, the stuck-up Englishman is shocked to discover a winery turning out top-notch chardonnay. Determined to make a name for himself, he sets about getting the booze back to Paris… setting in motion a chain of events which will lead to the controversial 1976 wine-tasting known today as “The Judgement of Paris.”

Presented in partnership with Wine Enthusiast, we are thrilled to present this special screening—followed by a private wine tasting event featuring varietals from the film—in the JBFC’s Take 3 Wine Bar & Café, led by Marshall Tilden, Chief Revenue & Education Officer at Wine Enthusiast.
