Wine OR Wine & Food

In the final installment of the Judgment of Paris series, we will learn about the details of the historic 1976 Paris wine tasting, in which California wines went head-to-head with the best wines France had to offer. While Jeff Brooks (founder of the Young Austin Wine Lovers) gives a presentation about this amazing event in wine history, we will be conducting a blind tasting between representative California and Bordeaux red wines, with the audience getting a chance to vote on which is superior. Cissi's market will also be providing excellent food samplers to go along with the wines.

All wine sampled will be available for purchase by the bottle. The cost of the event is $15.
