The International Women’s Wine Competition is a premier tasting event where panels are composed entirely of female wine industry professionals, including winemakers, sommeliers, educators, and journalists.

The competition focuses on two main goals: recognizing world-class wines and identifying the bottles most likely to appeal to female consumers, who drive the majority of wine purchasing decisions.

We are honored to have received exceptional awards from this esteemed panel of judges, comprised of an exceptional group of highly trained, respected professional women from the wine industry and wine media—each of whom approaches this responsibility with seriousness, expertise, and integrity.
