The London Wine Competition is an international wine competition organized by Beverage Trade Network. The competition looks to recognise, reward and help promote wine brands that have successfully been created to identify with and target a specific wine drinker.
Since these are the top three factors that determine how consumers purchase drinks, London Wine Competition conducted that is the best way to pick the best wines. We came to this decision, after speaking and interviewing many buyers.
It's a task for wine brand to earn its place on a retailer’s shelf or a restaurant’s wine list - and then vitally stay there - they need to be marketable and consumer-driven and not just produced in the general hope it can find enough people willing to sell and buy it. Over the period of time and studying, we could establish 5 ways on how to be placed in front of the customers to be picked.
We claim London Wine Competition to be different, from a list of competition you will notice. It helps to single out and shine the spotlight on those wine brands that consumers really want to buy and have a clear market value for trade buyers.
A competition that judges wines in three key areas:
To be an award winner you will need to have a top-quality wine, that offers both the trade and the consumer great value for money, and you will need to look good and truly stand out on the shelf and on the back bar.
