Films tackle wine tasting of '76
The story of a now legendary 1976 Paris wine tasting gets its first Hollywood treatment with the premiere of "Bottle Shock" at the Sundance Film Festival. It's one of two rival movie projects about the historic wine event. When a group of French experts more than 30 years ago rated wines from brand-new California makers higher than Burgundies and Bordeaux, the wine world was reshaped forever. The winners, Chateau Montelena (with its 1973 chardonnay) and Stag's Leap Wine Cellars (1973 cabernet), have been celebrating ever since. The chardonnay is now over the hill, but rare bottles of the cabernet, still delicious, can be found for about $1,000. "Bottle Shock" scoops "The Judgment of Paris," which has not yet started filming. The producers of the second film control rights to a 2005 book on the tasting and the life story of Englishman Steven Spurrier, who ran a Paris wine shop and staged the competition.
