General Information

WHAT MAKES IWSC DIFFERENT?
– We work with some of the world’s most eminent wine professionals, including Steven Spurrier, Sarah Heller MW, John Hoskins MW, Alex Hunt MW, Dirceu Vianna Junior MW and Mick O’Connell MW.
– We optimise your brand exposure: our experts assess not only the wines within their specialist areas, but also get to see and taste all the wines entered into the IWSC. This gives them an opportunity to discover new wines across all regions.
– We ask you to tell us about your distribution channels. Then, whether you’re looking for distribution in the UK, Asia or the US, or exposure in the on-trade, IWSC will ensure your wine is put in front of the relevant decision-makers.
– We link gatekeepers and producers: our experts (sommeliers, on- and off-trade buyers, retailers) are provided with full details of all wines tasted (in any category) that are relevant to their target market.

ENGAGE WITH

– Influencers from every sector of the international wine trade
