I knew a little bit of the history of the Paris judgment. Since this book is told by someone present there, it is the most reliable source of information. I think the history is very interesting on itself. I just though the author could do better... He takes a lot of pages on the story of the wine makers, which is interesting but too much detailed. The judgement itself has much less space, and I think the author could have taken it longer. After the judgment and its repercussion the author takes a lot more on considerations on all world regions...
It is all interesting, but I had bought the book for the Paris judgement, not for the author's opinion on South African wines.Get more detail about Judgment of Paris: California vs. France and the Historic 1976 Paris Tasting That Revolutionized Wine.
