Hannah Tovey, Head of the London Wine Fair, explained, "Steven Spurrier's 1976 Judgement of Paris was the inspiration for this event. It was a seminal moment that catapulted Californian wines onto the global fine wine stage and upset the status quo. We wanted to revisit this with an up-to-date version reflecting today's fine wine market, where European and non-European wines are equally prized."
Held on May 20th, 2024 and spearheaded by Ronan Sayburn, Master Sommelier and CEO of The Court of Master Sommeliers, and Sarah Abbott, Master of Wine and MD of Swirl Wine Group, the event featured 32 top wines, representing the best from around the world. Sharing her insights into the selection process, Sarah Abbott said, "Our goal was to create a diverse lineup that reflects the richness and complexity of today's wine world, from classic European terroirs to emerging regions in the new world, every wine tells a story."
