2020 London Wine Competition winners will now be able to showcase their company profiles and products in Get Drinks Delivered platform. A new discovery platform that showcases which bottle shops, restaurants, breweries, distilleries and wineries deliver in the UK.

The clock is well and truly ticking for anyone looking to enter their wines into the inaugural London Wine Competition which closes its doors for entries on June 20, 2020. The London Wine Competition is where the focus is on the drinkability, and likeability of the wine by the end consumer and is based on what the wine tastes like, what it looks like and how quaffable it. The awards will be judged by some of the UK’s leading sommeliers and on-trade wine buyers.

The London Wine Competition was been launched to identify and reward those brands and products that the organisers say “consumers actually want to buy, rather than simply recognise good quality wines for their winemaking ability alone”. It is how marketable and consumer focused the wines are that will determine how well they do, not just the quality and skill of the winemaking.

That is why the organisers of the London Wine Competition believe they have a different approach to wine awards – to create winners that consumers, the wine buying public can relate to. Based on three judging criteria:

1. Their quality.

2. Their value for money.

3. What they look like.

Winning wines will receive either a Gold, Silver or Bronze medal

Entrants must send three bottles for each entry to the LWC warehouse to arrive on or before June 24. The wines will then be judged by a leading panel of wine buyers that each have current direct commercial buying responsibility.

Wines will be awarded a Gold, Silver or Bronze award based on the number of points they get for each criteria in the judging competition. Hence a good quality wine with a poor label will be judged down, compared to a quality wine and commercially focused wine label.

This impressive list includes leading, award winning sommeliers, master of wines, wine merchants, chain wine buyers, sommeliers, master sommeliers will be judging and buying wine based on their commercial criteria.
