General Information

Judging – March 18-19, 2024 – Winners Announced – April 10, 2024

The London Wine Competition reviews brands in the same way that consumers do: by what they taste like; what the bottle or design looks like; and how much it costs. Any drinks competition relies on two things: the quality of the products that are entered; and the respect of the expertise of the judges tasked with picking out the winners. The London Wine Competition has focused on both as each year it builds its reputation around the world amongst the leading winemakers, brand owners and drinks distributors.

The judging for the competition is broken down into three key areas: Quality; Value; and Packaging and design. A score is given by judges for each criteria which together creates the London Wine Competition score on which the medal awarded is given.
