Judgment of Paris

The event was a turning point in wine history, but I'm curious how the author decided to frame it as a revolution. Was there a personal connection or a specific story that sparked this focus?

The book dives deep into the sensory aspects of wine, which made me wonder if the author has a background in wine or food writing. How did that influence the storytelling?

As someone new to wine history, I was impressed by the depth, but I also wonder if some of the cultural nuances were simplified or romanticized for storytelling.
