WHO WILL BE JUDGING MY WINES?
The 32nd Competition's thirteen member International Jury (plus one junior Reserve Judge in Residence) will comprise eleven returning judges plus three new faces. Six of the Judges are Senior Winemakers - these are our Technical Judges. The balance of the Panel are our Style Judges, mostly wine buyers, responsible for reading consumer tastes, forecasting and facilitating future movements. Style Judges are equally competent in assessing wine's technical aspects and Senior Winemakers are acutely aware that making technically perfect wine is one thing; having consumers buy it is equally important. Every entry will be assessed by this International Panel of Senior Judges. Read on.
