Wines judged by Quality, Value and Package. The new Wine Ratings looks to set a new benchmark for award-winning wine by assessing them for their quality, their value for their money and what they look like with their packaging and design. We’re told to never judge a book by its cover. Which is very much the approach taken by the majority of wine competitions around the world that only judge a wine by how it tastes, with no consideration at all for what it looks like, and often how much it costs. Beverage Trade Network hopes to change all that with its new global awards initiative, the USA Wine Ratings (UWR).

The China Wine Competition looks to recognize, reward and help promote wine brands that have successfully been created to identify with and target a specific wine drinker. For any wine brand to earn its place on a retailer’s shelf or a restaurant’s wine list—and then, vitally, stay there—they need to be marketable and consumer-driven, not just produced in the general hope it can find enough people willing to sell and buy it. That is why the China Wine Competition is different. It will single out and shine the spotlight on those wine brands that consumers really want to buy and have a clear market value for trade buyers. The competition will judge wines in three key areas: 1. Quality 2. Value 3. Appearance To be an award winner you will need to have a top quality wine that offers both trade and consumer great value for their money, and you will need to look good and truly stand out on the shelf and back bar.
