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). Key Dates Special Pricing Domestic Registration: Ends June 20, 2018 Domestic Registration: Ends June 30, 2018 International Registration: Closed Warehouse Closes For Samples: July 05, 2018 Judging: July 23-24, 2018 Winners Announced: September 5, 2018 Competitions Date: 23rd – 24th July, 2018 Time: Mon – 10 am to 4 pm and Tues – 10 am to 4 pm A competition that will judge wines in three key areas: • Their Quality • Their value for Money • Their Packaging Total Judges Participating – 50 Judges Entry Registration for Wine:.
