About Sommeliers Choice Awards

The 3rd Annual Sommeliers Choice Awards is set to take place in May 2021 in San Francisco, USA. With an aim to provide on-premise buyers and sommeliers a valuable benchmark for understanding which wines would make a captivating addition to a wine list, ace sommeliers and top-notch wine buyers and wine directors will be gathering in San Francisco on 16 May 2021 to judge the best wines within the industry.

Wine brands looking to grow their distribution in the US market in 2021 must enter now in the 2021 Sommeliers Choice Awards and get their wines reviewed by America’s top Sommeliers, Master Sommeliers, and Wine Directors. Final Registration ends Tomorrow on April 20.

How The Scoring System Works

Sommeliers Choice Awards provides independent and honest reviews of all wines entered into the competition, based on several key criteria, such as Food Parability, Typicity, Quality, Value and Package. The top two questions that sommeliers will be attempting to answer as they judge wines is: “Would we stock this?” and "Will the consumer buy the 2nd glass".

F (Food Parability Score) + T (Typicity Score) + Q (Quality Score) + Value Score (V) + Package Score (P) = Sommeliers Choice Awards Final Score.
