After 2 years of consecutive success, the 3rd edition of the London Wine Competition brings the best deals for wine brands. This international competition, due to its unique approach to judging, has been recognized as a unique and ideal competition among all the other wine judging events from across the globe.
All global wine competitions have been organized in the same way for years, by wines being blind-tasted and judged. The London Wine Competition has taken a step ahead and brought a different approach to judging. Apart from quality, the London Wine Competition also judges all wines, based on their packaging and value for money. To be more precise, the London Wine Competition judges in the way a consumer would, when picking a wine.
The average customer always looks at the price first. Then they look at the label and pick out the wines with designs and stories that appeal to them. So, these two things come before a producer even gets a chance to show how well their wine is.
Putting this into place, the London Wine Competition judges wines based on three main parameters:
Quality
We celebrate the wines that are both enjoyable and easy to drink, wines that are well-balanced where their acidity, tannins and alcohol levels all work seamlessly together.
Packaging
What a wine brand looks like is how every consumer chooses their wines. Up to 70% of consumers would choose a new wine just because it looks good. So, well-designed packaging is a must-to-consider factor.
Value
To be a good wine, it is not necessary to have a higher or cheaper price. What affects most is the value for money it holds.
