22nd May 2026 Judgement of Paris, in combination with other IWFS branches. A comparison of Chardonnay and Bordeaux blend wines produced in France and around the world May 24th 2026 marks the 50th anniversary of the Judgement of Paris tasting, which changed the world of wine for ever. To mark the occasion, the IWFS Europe Asia region are planning to hold an ambitious event - the IWFS Judgement Plus 50 - a series of blind tastings in branches and IWFS regions around the world. The results will be collated and winners announced on the 50th anniversary. To reflect the development of the world of wine since 1976, this will compare Chardonnays and Bordeaux Blends from top wine regions, including competitors from France, North and South America, South Africa and Oceania. The aim is for hundreds (if not thousands) of IWFS members across the globe to determine whether France rules the international league table, or which of its international rivals now lead the way! You'll score the wines according to our pre-set guide. No expertise is required. All you need is a palate and an opinion. We will be tasting the following selection of wines
We will taste the Chardonnays, followed by our starter, then the Bordeaux Blends and conclude with our main course. You know what the wines are, but we will taste blind, in random order. Each person will score each wine out of 20. The cost for members will be will be £65, non members £75
