Vino 100 will host two exclusive screenings of the highly acclaimed movie Bottle Shock on Thursday, February 12 and Friday, February 13 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. to coincide with the film’s national DVD release.
Bottle Shock tells the story of the historic 1976 wine tasting known as the “Judgment of Paris,” where, for the first time, American vintners managed to defeat the French in a blind tasting to crown the ultimate Cabernet and Chardonnay, the signature varietals of red and white wine.
Now, decades since the United States became part of the cultured world of wine, director Randall Miller offers up a serio-comic take on the event starring Bill Pullman and Alan Rickman. The film is as “tasty as a well-aged Burgundy,” according to one film critic.
Discover what started the buzz and put California wines on the world stage. Join Vino 100 for an evening of blind wine tasting, just like the movie. Each screening is limited to 20 persons. Reservations required; call for cost and more details regarding this event. Following its national DVD release, Bottle Shock will be available for purchase at Vino 100 and makes a perfect gift for any wine lover.
February is the perfect time to test your own taste buds and participate in a variety of wine-related activities. In addition to a calendar filled with wine-related events, Vino 100 also offers personalized services. Our knowledgeable and friendly staff can help you organize a do-it-yourself, blind wine tasting party complete with supplies and wine selection assistance. We’ll walk you through setting up your first wine-tasting event.
If you want the experience without the hassle, we can also arrange for private in-home tasting. Or you can reserve our store and invite friends, co-workers and anyone else on your guest list to enjoy an evening of wine tasting.
