Description
Steven Spurrier: A Life in Wine A career in wine began for Steven Spurrier at 13, when he was handed a glass of Cockburn 1908 vintage port by his grandfather. This encounter set him on a path that would take him to Europe and beyond. Spurrier's adventures in the world of wine were marked by bold moves and remarkable successes. He established himself as an Englishman in Paris, selling wine to the French, before going on to mastermind the 'Judgement of Paris' in 1976. This blind tasting changed the course of the wine world forever. This memoir charts Spurrier's life, tracing the events, ideas, and discoveries that shaped his journey. With contributions from notable figures in the industry, it offers a unique insight into the life and times of one of the most influential wine personalities of the 20th century.
