About this Event
Celebrate one of the most historic moments in American winemaking — the legendary Judgment of Paris.
This exclusive culinary experience showcases the iconic wines of Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars, whose 1973 Cabernet Sauvignon famously claimed victory in the 1976 Paris Tasting and forever changed the world’s perception of Californian wines. Enjoy a thoughtfully curated five-course menu to be expertly paired to highlight the legacy of these remarkable wines.
Hosted by Wine Educator Patrick Bayne and Sommelier Mark Jaeschke, this unforgettable evening offers a rare opportunity to explore the history, passion, and pioneering spirit behind one of Napa Valley’s most celebrated estates.
