Odette Kahn

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Odette Kahn was a leading authority on wine and editor of the Revue du Vin de France (Review of French wine and of Cuisine et Vins de France (Food and Wines of France). She was a judge at the Paris Wine Tasting of 1976. Kahn was outraged at the results of the tasting, unsuccessfully demanded her ballot back, refused later to speak to organizer Steven Spurrier after the event, claimed fraud, and wrote disparagingly about the wine competition.
