Judging – September 19-22, 2023
Samples are arranged and tasted by category and presented to judges in flights of tasting glasses – the bottles are never seen by judges. The judges are provided with a score sheet and the basic parameters of the class (with reference to the categories entered) under assessment.
Samples are tasted and scored with 100-point system individually by judges, with scores collected and recorded by the panel chair who may open scores for final discussions within the panel.
