The Paris Wine Tasting of 1976 revolutionized the wine world. After the leading wine experts in France selected both white and red wine from California as superior to the very best French wines in blind taste tests, the world recognized that superior wines could be made in other parts of the world. The Ottawa Wine Tasting of 1981 confirmed that fact on January 18, 1981 the Canada's capital.

New York Times wine critic Robards reported that "Thirteen wines were involved, and California swept the first five places, defeating Château Lafite-Rothschild, Château Mouton-Rothschild, Château Latour, Château Margaux and Château Haut-Brion, all from the excellent Bordeaux vintage of 1970." These are all First Growths (Premiers Crus) as established by the Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855.

These were the results:
